Empty
unknown and uncovered
the faceless expression
that smears across my face
the thought that seems to linger in my eyes
unexpectedly
and most certainly devastating...
unsure of the word to use...
surely no words
of magnitude
can describe
this mysterious feeling.
baffling how the mind works
in enigmatic ways
encrypted codes
that no one will ever crack...
especially the codes that
lurk in this dark mind.
so afraid
so lost...
unsure
and quite questionable...
why do i keep
such things bottled up...
it will build up
and topple over me.
one day
i will fall to my own
self-created destruction.
like the hidden land mines
i will one day
fall to my death,
like the helpless victims of such
bodily destructive things.
yet, the more i keep hidden
the safer i feel
keep myself away from the norm
hidden in my self
incarceration.
shun the world away
go where the light cannot be seen
where darkness
covers the earth like a blanket.
thoughtless
emotionless
lifeless
thats how life is
for me that is.
theres no vision for tomorrow.
no hope I'm yesterday.
i stand on a foundation
that hides no regrets.
certainly no turning back
but this is what I've become
and will be
until someone will
show me the true meaning of happiness.
