I hate this void within
this gaping hole
that screams of silence
thumping echoes in my brain
endlessly night and day

Images i can't decipher
hover of the edge of darkness
tinkering their bits of bitterness
a black hole in motion
without rhyme or reason

sounds exactly like the anxiety I felt in the weeks prior to surgery...screams of silence and black hole in motion. Well done, Line...have a pleasant evening, Sara
