Hollowed words dropped again
As fast as bullets flying
People screaming and fleeing
Empty thoughts and prayers
All prayers no action.
Empty sentiment
Hollowed words
Masking broken hearts
Open wounds
Hollowed words
Salt such wounds.
Hollowed words
Sentiment lost
Upon an endless loop
Like a broken record
-scratched-
Th-t-Thoughts

#hollow thoughts
#hollow prayers
Hollowly hashed up
If you must think
Do so with reflections
Followed by action
If you pray,
Pray in and for solidarity
Empathize and support
Pray though
But
Also
Follow through with action
Or else it’s just another
Thought
Just another
Prayer
Just another
