emotiness

Bother me to bother you

So I pity my ceiling 

For being bothered by my emptiness 

Filling a whole room

Towering over debris 

Of walls of mine that you tore down  
 

I pity my heart

For stressing itself 

Too much effort for no cheer

Met with little done for many a tear

When you bothered me to bother you
