end of hollow words

i don't want to write you
because my hands hurt quite a bit
from writing you before

you say things
you don't mean
and mean things
you don't say

you are nothing but
hands typing hollow words
into an empty space

carving my head
into nothing you mean

i overlook across each sentence
to the next
trying to grasp
that you might care

but permanence is temporary
in the ease of an email
