Hello

White and empty this page.
Useless this full inked pen
when it wont write and change
the stage.

Silly heart full of deep love
nothing can fall from thought
to words even when eagerly
push comes to shove.

Empty phone talk when
no one ever answers
Useless phone lines
they can't make you see
it is me, please answer.

I am sorry for everything
I have or have not done
It doesn't seem to matter
to you, me being gone. 

I have forgotten how much
mattered before the world
fell at our feet. Silence now
is my heart's retreat.

I seem to be on the outside
of all that seems to be wrong
I have loved only you for so,
so long.

White and empty this page.
Useless this full inked pen
when it won't write and change
the stage.

Reflections of my heart, Sharon. What a good outlet we have for expressing the pain..keeping our pens ready when the memories and thoughts need to be written. I like this very much.
