Empty Silhouette

Why is there Such emptiness within me? No desire no passion When yesterday My heart was just too little And my eyes Laughing with joy? Why is there Such stillness within me? Where have the days gone When in my heart There was always a song And in my eyes A fire lit?

I really like this. It's emotive and it's short and well written. I was curious why you said, "when yesterday my heart was just too little" Wouldn't it have been bigger or stronger if you were filled with song "yesterday"? I did not see new poems from you today so was remembering I left off around the time of my Sept birthday!
