Empty Souls

Take my depression,
Black heart and empty soul.
Take my shady face,
Gloomy voice and dark clothes.

Take my guilt,
Lonely days and fearful nights.
Take my silent breath,
Heavy heart and regretful fights.

Take my hatred,
Low self esteem and jealousy.
Take my hurt,
Sorrow and secrecy.

Take my miserable words,
Slow steps and eyes that rain.
Take my anger,
Revenge and unwanted pain.
