My life
My life, my life, my life……. What can I say about myself? How do I describe this feeling of emptiness and voidness, I keep making excuses as to why I feel this way but it still doesn't add up or make me feel any better, this feeling of wanting more but yet not knowing what you want, this feeling of wanting more and then getting it but yet it still doesn't suffice
