In the hollow depths of empty nights,
Where shadows dance and fears take flight,
Echoes resonate with ghostly might,
I find myself in the fullness of blight.

I feel the most fulfilled when hollow's my core,
Where darkness creeps, and light can't restore,
Lost in the depths of an eternal lore,
I find my solace in emptiness galore.

My to-do list full, my heart now bleeds,
In mundane tasks, my soul recedes,
A prisoner bound by worldly needs,
Empty inside, while duty proceeds.

Human template, a life so frail,...
