The Hollow Girl

Usual story, this is an early draft. I've been mulling this one for a couple of days, but haven't written any of it down til now. See what y'think

The Hollow Girl

There she goes,
The Hollow girl.
Her feet don’t touch the floor.
Her bones are filled
With air and steam.
She’s passed before you notice her.

Floating through,
The Hollow girl.
Her eyes are touched with gold,
The crowded streets,
Don’t slow her down,
She leaves no footsteps on the road.

All alone,
This Hollow girl,
She tries to touch the world,
She fills her shoes,
With rocks and stones
And weighs her neck with ropes of pearl.

There she goes,
The Hollow girl,
Her feet just touch the floor,
Her shoes are filled
With rocks and stones,
She’s passed before you notice her.
