Empty (short poem)

by Matt Carroll   Sep 14, 2017


Broken, empty, bruised and battered
Gone away has all that mattered
Cold and lonely, soul is tattered
Heart beyond mend, pieces shattered

Tired, listless, pained and downed
In sorrow I'll be surely drowned
Blinded by tears, muffled is the sound
Of cries unanswered...peace not found...

    A very sad piece, Matt but one that is beautifully crafted and rhymed. Well done indeed on this,

    I feel like I can relate fairly heavily to this, Matt. I feel like I'm mimicking Em here but I feel like that alot right now. I hope things get better!

    This is exactly how I feel right and now just seems as though everything is going wrong and I feel like screaming "give me a break ffs" but instead we endure the pain and look for good in things and soon it'll come

    Aw. Short but profound and something everyone can relate to. Really well written.
    Big hugs if this reflects your 'here and now' :-)
