Something To Hold Onto

I thought that there was something there Something to hold onto I had reached out my open hand To an emptiness I did not seek to find Empty words in empty air Oceans of lonely time Promises never spoken A loss of the true sublime An emptiness is all I feel An emptiness inside My missing half that had been found Now has left me without a sound I shall retreat back to the safety of me Hold up my inner mirror to really see If any real damage has been done Has love's battle been fought and won I shall rebuild my fotress strong and tall My castles in the the air God help the next person who tries to dare To scale these walls without a care Nothing is as nothing seems Words that come easily have no meaning And when spoken with no feeling Silence has more worth.
