Emptiness

As these tears roll down my cheeks
there's emptiness inside
The salty taste that makes my eyes dry
but not before my whole face is soaked
With this random burst of sadness

But i have nothing to be sad about
I'm just a regular kind of girl
Sure a little chubby
but nothing more than insecure
I'm not addicted to drugs
haven't even taken a sip of liquor
My parents aren't abusive
in fact they hardly even bicker

So why am i so broken
Why am i so shut down
this emptiness is my shadow
and I wear it like a gown

School is so overwhelming
My best friend wont tell me anything
Listen to me complain, complain
I'm asking you to fix this broken wing.

    school can definitely be overwhelming. nice rhyming, good format. every now and then people have to just let their emotions run free, even if there's hardly any reason for it. it is interesting how quickly they come on and how quickly they can go away. nice write.
    God Bless,
