EMPTINESS

Emptiness

I wrote this a long time ago. Not a very good poem.

What is emptiness?

It is when you want to cry,

but tears won’t come out.

It is when you try to make friends,

but don’t care if you don’t have any.

What is emptiness?

It is when your world revolved around laughter,

but now you can’t remember how to smile.

It is when you loved to sing and dance,

but now you end up getting stage fright.

What is emptiness?

It is when a friend moves away,

but you feel like they died.

It is when you want to talk to old friends

but feel like they won’t remember.

Emptiness is like an emotional poem that makes you feel nothing.

Emptiness is a like a funny joke that causes you not to laugh.

Emptiness is a feeling that reverses other feelings.

But how can emptiness be a feeling, when what you’re feeling…isn’t there?

The author said: "not a very good poem". She’s right. But each word she wrote? They’re all right.
