Empty Eyes,
Bereft of Emotions /
Empty Lips,
Bereft of Speech /
Empty Hands,
Bereft of Warmth /
Empty Mind,
Bereft of Thought /
Empty Heart,
Bereft of Feelings /
Empty Books,
Bereft of Words /
Empty Music,
Bereft of Melody /
Empty Room,
Bereft of Voice /
Empty House,
Bereft of Company /
Empty Dreams,
Bereft of Hope /
Empty Present,
Bereft of a Future //
Like a kite set adrift on a bleak greying sky /
Like a wound that no longer bleeds but leaves a dull ache /
Like a barren land that knows no growth //
Emptiness that transcends
The boundaries of Time and Space /
Emptiness, Emptiness, Emptiness,
That Rejection brings in its Wake //
