An Empty Heart

An Empty Heart

A Poem by The Nameless
"

I'm tired of writing poetry of the mind

"

I'm tired of writing poetry of the mind
Thoughts are empty and so unkind
It questions the heart and ways of love
It tears us down from Heaven above

But it's hard to write of things you don't know
You can't be honest, it's just for the show
Because how can an empty heart
Tell you that it's not apart?

When all of love has proved disappointment
And love is happiness and you avoid it
The joy too little, the pain too overwhelming
And you chose to shut out all the feelings

But what an empty life without fullfilment
Without a fight, a try for some improvement?
Is love out there? Can it be?

Is there truly someone out there waiting for me?

Perhaps this will help you decide on whether or not to risk being injured by love

When you are but old and feeble
with your grandchild upon your knee
Tell your stories, of life's glories
show him the scars so he can see

A life spent cowering from pain
will so leave you aching inside
The best gift you'd miss, from life's kiss
knowing you never even tried
