A Lost Life of Nothing

I've been reduced to a life of nothing.

Memories lost in the depths of my soul.

I am so filled yet I feel so empty.

Surrounded by many friends and family but I am so lonely.

I wish to cry but the tears will not come.

Sleep is a thing of the past and my heart is so very tired.

My tattered old house now seems like a paradise within my dreams.

The walls filled of smudges and stains from the careless acts of children now appear to be works of art soon to be forgotten forever.

What will ever replace them?

Nothing!

Gone now and forever, nothing but a pile of rubble.

So where do we go?

What do we do?

Rebuild they say.

Rebuild...yes.

Replace...never.
