Spell Me

Spell Me

E-M-P-T-I-N-E-S-S
That spells "Me"
How can I be incorrect 
There's been a lock on my heart 
And I threw away the keys
because people tend to invade anyway 
victim of vandalism 
my heart has been torn apart
I was robbed of love and confidence
they stole from me the little that I had 
and I didn't have much 
I was just trying to fill a void 
Fill a void 
Where everything about me had been 
ripped and torn 
With a hole in my chest 
I don't know how to love 
and with the people I've come in contact with 
I'm starting to think they don't either 
Because all they care about is the money and the brands 
and me I'll just wear a Walmart wife beater
Because there's no significance in what I wear
I mean people say "it brings confidence"
but they must be unaware that 
those with the most are more down and broken 
than those with none 
just as me with this hole 
that has been robbed and never loved by one 
me the one nothing to feel this void 
I tried the weed and it wasn't enough to hold things up 
I tried the drinks and it all it did was tear down on me 
and I tried sex , and it pleased me 
but it didn't do the pleasing to save me
Because this void was still empty
this void empty and deep 
hard to feel because of feelings of me 
M-E
that spells "empty"
because this void is dried out now 
and nothing will be able to fill it's place 
and if it's able too 
it won't hold for long
it'll just crumble and wither away 
dropping into the soil 
on the concrete 
up came a rose with a heart beat
I took it and planted it inside me 
it filled that void 
and now me, was spelled 
W-H-O-L-E
because all of me was taken and put into that seed
that planted that rose in the concrete
and bloomed with a heart beat

Very clever and well written Kayla... I'm sure most of us can identify with M-E :)
