Empty

Contributed by lostinmyself on Saturday, 8th July 2006 @ 03:57:46 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry




Are these the only tears that fall?

Am I almost empty now?

All feeling's gone, I can't recall,

Why I lived, or even how.


It seems that there is little point,

In falling back in to my dreams,

Or close my eyes and find a place,

To hide inside my memories.

[There's nothing left,
I'm dead inside,
I have no hope
In which to hide.
And the darkness when,
I close my eyes,
Is more than I
Can now abide.]


And now I know the truth of this,

With every tear I fail to cry,

That while I somehow still exist,

I'm empty now, my heart has died.

Beautifully presented low tide moment. Really good poets, as you are, can capture the emotion to relate such moments in a way that almost scares those who care about you. I had a time like this back in 2003 and I related it to an old timer cowboy poet and he simply said, "Stay in the saddle, pard." I pondered that advice in what I call meditation and the words to my "bring me up" poem came almost magically to me. I humbly ask ya to check out my poem, Stay In The Saddle 'cause it really worked to resuscitate my heart.

This one's a really good one, though; makes me want to go read my poem myself.

I can empathise with your thoughts, been there a few times myself.

This is great that you can verbalise how you are feeling,
Its good to look back on when better days come around once again, I know they will for you too.

great write from the heart

awesome read.

thanks for sharing.

Hugs from Doug God Bless You

Aw, Phyllis this is incredibly sad.

*huge like real Timbo hug*

I'm sorry to hear you have been feeling down. This however, obviously has generated a perfectly penned poem.

Please remember that you are a beautiful person and that we all love you here.

Sincerely,

Tim

*another huge hug just for the heck of it* :-)

Beautifully sad and flowing.
A true echo of that emptiness that is inside all of us...if we could just reach out to fill ourselves.....sigh.

My heart wept reading this. For it speaks of such dejection and loss. A sadness that pervades the confines of all existance. A coldness began to seep in my heart and a hollow formed for such a read as this does leave a mark most forlorn. But I guess it speaks well of your poetic wiles for it does speak to me. I do hope that you are not as down as this but perhaps just teasing the gist. Anyways a heartfelt write my friend and I hope your sojourn into the depths will end soon for then might you rise to shine with the sun and dance upon the skies.

Beautiful sadness..
my advice would be, to resuscitate that heart of yours.. life's too short as it is-
though as long as you keep writing - I'm sure that'll cure what ails you.. or at the very least, keep that heart beating.

Great work Phil..

Oh, phillygirl .. I can't tell you how sad this makes me feel ..

I want to 'mark' just where and when the pain gripped
me in this write, but the emotion that you've evoked is
stationed through it's entirety!

Incredible write hun. SOOOOOO bloody painful .. but
in a most exceptional and beautiful way ..

I have been here ..
I have felt this ..
*hugs you tons*
