Soulless Void

I struggle to avoid

I feel your lips
but not your kiss.

I feel your hand
but not your warmth.

I feel your body
but not your presence.

You are in my arms
but your mind is elsewhere.

You are here,
but your heart is not.

You're alive
but dead inside.

You became
a soulless void.

An emptiness
I struggle to avoid.
