Emptiness
Emptiness is something that grows deeper every day.
It hides amongst the chores and obligations,
It awakens you in the morning and tucks you in at night.
It comes to you during quiet moments
Ever present, throughout the day;
disguised behind cheerful conversation
and strong will,yet it never goes away.
Emptiness breathes on your neck,
with taunting whispers of hearten fulfillment,
But the echoing in you ear is silence.
