Nothingness

That feeling when you want something and you're left wanting

When you feel that emptiness, feeding itself, growing

The Demon of Nothingness closes your heart, numbs you

Reducing you to simply a shell, a resounding hollowness sounds within

Eyes looking, but not seeing

Ears hearing, but not listening

Alive, but not living.

Looking for someone to patch up the holes of nothingness

You feel nothing but the dull throb of emptiness

Paralyzed, feeling the worms of despair eating at your soul

Wanting to shred yourself to pieces

Unworthy, flawed, strange, awkward

All these words. chanted by the devils in your mind

Your thoughts, poisoned by hurtful words

Whoa! Shake it off and pick up a stick. Pick up a sword. Pick yourself up. You are the one to patch up the holes. Worms are not so hard to fight so don't hand them victory. Where is your anger? How do they dare? You are a unique creation a billion years in the making. What do they know anyway? You are a poet made of beauty. Let them sink below you where they belong.
