Teresa Harr-Pena Poet Free verse

My World

You are all I know
Know all of nothing
Nothing in my world
World of emptiness

Emptiness is where I sit
Sit and wait for words
Words never to be spoken
Spoken without guilt

Guilt that causes pain for all
All the time wasting away
Away from each other forever
Forever dreaming of desires

Desires kept at bay by choices
Choices that must be made
Made to save the hearts
Hearts to be mended

Mended by time
Time is endless for tears
Tears I shed when I awaken
Awaken to an empty world
