Empty Words

27/11/2019

 
Picture

Empty words
Which we chose to believe
Empty words
Never meant to deceive
We fill ourselves with promises that could never be achieved
Our true love an empty love
Cleave
Empty feelings
Shadows from our past
Empty feelings
Tenderness that could not last
Soon our feast of emotion became one of fast
A barren expanse reaching out
Vast
 
Empty heart
Filled only with our needs
Empty Heart
Selfish desires on which loneliness feeds
We lost sight of each other through me-me-greed
‘I no longer want you’
Decreed
 
Empty future
Filled with new possibility
Empty future
Untethered from the other’s inability
We realise and recognise our relationship’s unviability
And now we look out again
Futility
 
Empty egos
What we were was never real
Empty egos
With the world we make our deal
Never shall we trust again or find love of appeal
Our hearts stained a little more
Heal
