The Emptiness of Things

by aDORKable x3   Sep 16, 2006


As I sit here in my room
I dread what tomorrow brings
I wonder how you could be so glad
Of all the emptiness of things

My heart is slowly breaking
Splitting into two halves
One side filled with tears and hate
The other with smiles and laughs

Crying onto this pillow
That has now become my home
Wondering if you're feeling this way
I wonder if you are alone

The emptiness of things
Brings tears upon my cheeks
I always thought that I was strong
Until you showed me I was weak

I'm lying crumpled, on my bed
Just wishing for some relief
Hoping that one day, I'll see
This is going against my beliefs

Cutting slightly down my wrist
Just enough to make it bleed
I sit here staring, at the gash
The anger that I have to feed

One more cut is all I can take
Just one more chance at this
I hope it was worth it now
For that one foresaken kiss.

**Before I scare the crap outta some1, this is NOT true!! I wrote it for a contest, that's it! I Promise people!! **

    I have to say; great title! It's vague and provides just enough meaning to hint at what the poem's about. Flow is great, and the meaning is strong and influential. I really like this poem, even more than the others'. 5/5
