Emptyness
emptiness 2
How do you feel today ?
Like I’m in a empty room
A plain box in grey
Waiting for the end or doom
To come and get me
emptiness
I guess
Is what I feel
Is it the celexa or not
Life’s anchors
Linger not
My wife’s carer
Says talk to somebody at the office
My friend ‘s
Don’t know
Or do they feel
the same as me
I can’t tell them.
Looking out my window
I realise.
the shining leaves and tree’s
The sky and sun
Will continue on
when I’m long gone
even when human kind
has done its worse
to despoil our universe
do we deserve the wonders
we’ve been given here
god or happenstance
matters not
selfishness and greed
are they the same
planets by the million
galaxies a billion
more or less
do they contain
creatures of lessor greed
or imaginary need
when happiness
is what they need
but again
time will go on
when human life is gone
time and space eternal
in emptiness
