Emptiness

I feel empty.

I feel empty but I feel it deep in my heart it’s like the opposite of emptiness.

I feel empty but I hear my blood rush to my ears and I feel it run in my fingers, so I’m not empty.

I feel empty but I keep crying and I don’t think I’m crying from nothingness.

I feel empty but I keep overthinking everything until my head hurts from the huge load of thoughts.

That’s not emptiness, so what is it?

Why do I feel empty when I’m so full of life and emotions?
