Hollow

recklessly she kissed him
without knowing his name
he was surprised and felt lucky
and she was just a bit empty

would you call it brave?
the act of release
because she has nothing left to lose
she never had anything in the first place

so now she is reckless
abandoned by the light
drinks too much and her mouth is foul
her eyes are weaker, I see it
she no longer listens to music before bed
she's beyond that

but she finds the silence
desolate and hollow
she always did.
