Hollow Mountain

Am I just an empty mountain to you

A hole that you enter without risks

But I allow it

I try to numb the cracks in my cave

Calling you a useless traveler

Nothing more

Just useless

You traveler

But I don't feel the same when you explore other mountains

Cross other rivers

Smiling at a view that isn't me

You see it whenever you like

But not I

I ask the wolves to howl for you

Plead the winds to blow you my way

I can only receive your presence when I beg

When did I become so hollow

What was I before you brought your tools to my promise land

I ask but you tell me what I want to hear

Not what I fear to be true
