emptiness <br /> so close, <br /> yet cannot be touched., <br /> just like <br /> the faraway moon. <br /> <br /> in the afternoon of the life <br /> the length of time <br /> is vast and long.. <br /> as if waiting for somebody, <br /> has become your identity. <br /> <br /> it is a restless feeling <br /> to walk to the door, <br /> and come back again, <br /> to wait. <br /> <br /> no! no one is going to come <br /> its me and my empty world. <br /> <br /> giving birth to my children, <br /> and to my poems, <br /> this emptiness, <br /> is also born from me. <br /> so, why so much distance? ? <br /> <br /> sometime, i want to hug, <br /> this emptiness, <br /> like a mother does <br /> to her baby. <br /> <br /> sometimes, i need someone <br /> to walk beside me <br /> in this empty road of life. <br /> <br /> but, like all relationships, <br /> i know not why, <br /> emptiness is <br /> keeping distance from me!<br /><br />ritty patnaik<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feeling-of-emptiness/
