Emptiness
 
Empty
is what I feel inside
People ask if I'm sad
if I'm hurting
and I honestly answer
That I don't.
That I'm not.
It's a funny thing with emotions;
That they require feeling.
And without you
here
I'm numb
So, day by day I live
what has come to be
merely
a routine.
One day mirrors the previous.
The color has left my sight
and the happiness I once felt,
whenever I looked at you
and saw in your eyes
that you felt
the same,
that happiness is gone
and may never return.
The two of us
together
were as one.
Now, standing apart
I feel that my best half
is missing.
One look
at your smile
one look to tell me
the flame of ours still burns
And the light would return
to a world
that has become encased
in the dark.
The hardest thing to say is
goodbye
It makes other words
that used to scare me
come out, so so easy...
