Empty of you
The pain races
Quick to the spot
All my memories
Mean nothing to me
All I ever wanted to be
Is everything I’m too afraid to be
Loneliness , the solid wall
That keeps our secrets
Inside us all
How can you know me
How can you relate
So long as I stay behind
These eyes, these gates
The queer strength that resounds
Around inside of me
Oh it shines light, in the darkest
Corners of me
It says it’s the only way
To solidify weakness in me
That I can turn tears into pearls
That there is art in me
Why must I be afraid
Of what lies behind the curtain
Why must I fear
The sight of a gaping wound
In all my dreams I hear a voice
Saying I’m not ready
For a heart empty of you
Very heartfelt although the heart is gone in this poem. I always remember this line someone told me:
"Since Love was created, Pain was born as well."
Without pain, how will one truly understand what love is? Love sometimes hurts, that's how it is...
Great piece. Keep it up!
