Emptiness Poems
Vacancy
by Disha Shree
Felt like the ghost in the world of paper dolls,
More even like the ghost in my own machine,
I was the ghost running through time and space,
And the world became a noise, a distraction to be in.
People being the fragment of fire, barely a cinder,
It never mattered because I was the gasoline,
Soul was silent, chill in my blood,
Coldness bringing the synapses of my brain to a stand still.

Two Versions; One Curse
by B DEWITT
A haze.
That’s what it is.
The fuzzy emotions
that’ve entered my existence.
A potent mixture of
sadness,
loneliness,
and hopelessness.

Never Empty
by Robert Gold
Never Empty:
Never have I seen this place so empty
Never have I seen streets so bare
Never have I seen so many lights turned off
Never have I seen so many people lifeless
Never have I seen so many trees grey
Never have I seen flowers bloom, plants grow, or anything like it at all
This place was Never Empty

To feel
by Sharona anonymous
To feel
When she closes her eyes
all that she sees is black
and al she feels is pain
When she opens her eyes
all that she sees is emptiness
and everything she feels is broken

Gone
by Raina Hutchins
Yesterday has slipped away
And only now I see
Just how sad the answers
To those questions asked can be
A hollow feeling in my heart
A pain inside so real
An empty space inside of me
That only you can fill

This is Emptiness
by Lily Isong
This is Emptiness
This is how emptiness feels;
Like a glass, you're holding it, it's warm.
like a mirror even.
heavy, you see yourself in it.
It's crystal clear, it's shaped in a way you like, you turn it towards the sun, it reflects.
you can tell the direction of the sun with it.
I guess.
