Emptiness
how do you stop missing someone
when they,re always on your mind
How to stop a heart from hurting
These answers are so hard to find
We always thought that we’re in control
To avoid the pot holes we come upon
And we’re careful to only pick the roses
And not to get entangled in the thorn
But within the seconds of a minute
A whole life can change
And you can find your self lost
in the middle an open firing range
You can go from under the sheets
To the freezing cold
And the life that you accustom living
You begin to slowly lose control
When love comes in your life
It falls on you like the rain
And all your careful assumptions
Gets wash away like leaves in a drain
The invisible force of love
That grows in my heart wont stop
And every time I think of her
The emptiness just fills me up
I was contented in my darkness
But I welcome the sunshine
Before she came into my life
Happiness never crosses my mind
And though I was lonely
I never notice the emptiness
For it just never bothered me
To make it any of my business
But when she came into my life
It’s like a new person was born
I open my windows
And all the dark clouds was gone
And she takes residence in my heart
With out I even knowing
And soon my heart was alive again
With all these emotions over flowing
And happiness was now in my life
But the emptiness was here to stay
For the woman I so madly love
Are still thousands of miles away?
The wings of love can carry you
To the corners of the world
To the very heart of the person
That will forever live in your soul
And thought I have found love
To fill my life forever
This emptiness will always remain
Until the day we are together
