Room

I see the corner of the room

You are not there

Instead there is a hollow

The same old song

Loneliness.

I hear you, very painful. A trust broken or a loved one passed on. Irreplaceable. I try my best to never leave a hollow. Not easy I know. If it cannot be filled with love and respect, then fill it with forgiveness. Prayer. Or that hollow will fill itself -- my experience, negatives actively seek hollows. Blessings my friend. Powerful write!
