Hollow Love

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Just going through the motions
Is that what you're doing?
Love is all you really want
It doesn't matter who.
You swear the love you have for me
Is true...
But little do you know
I can sense a hollow heart
In a hollow man.

In your dark corners I am kept
Ashamed of what we have.
But it's love, none the less
And that is what you want
Spare no expense.

The irony is choking me
I'm the one that was leary
Second guessing my feelings
Thinking that you weren't good enough for me.

But here I am
In the car (there might be someone you know inside)
Hussled down to the basement (don't want the others to 
                               say more than just hi)
Not waiting to be seated, just McDonald's, please 
                            (don't want people to know you 
                                 are with me)

Again, irony is choking me
A hollow heart, deceiving to be genuine,
Loving and being loved
By a a heart with depth, translucent to look hollow.
