Emptiness is so very full <br />Full of what? <br />Full of loneliness <br />Full of a sinking feeling until <br />Finally reaching a sea bed of dreams <br />With dark creatures of a cold sunless ocean <br />Filling my mind with dread <br />A sunken pirate ship of humanity <br />Swashbuckling tales of buckled, bent, mediocrity <br />A life examined falling short of ideology <br />Eulogy not necessary <br />And now an emptiness <br />So very full <br />Of nothingness <br />That’s me. <br />May I dissolve and <br />Join the endless <br />Sea <br />An emptiness <br />With nothing left <br />Of me <br />A vast unshored ocean <br />And filled with <br />The loneliness <br />Of just One <br />The I that witnessed the thought <br />I am me. <br />An emptiness filled <br />With a sea <br />Of bliss.<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/emptiness-27/
