Void

Updated: Mar 11

In midst of a deafning silence.

Injured in a bloodless violence.

I feel no pain, no more.

Perhaps it’s gloom, I now adore.

Floating in the great ocean of void.

Lost my smile, neither have I cried.

I lay still, paddles at rest.

My hands across my chest.

Inside is a heart that does not feel

No love, no pain, no desire to ever heal.

I am lost in my empty boat all alone.

A strange feeling, I have never known.


What do you call it?


Numbness?

Emptiness?


When you’re lost in the great ocean of void

Accompanied only by hopelessness!
