Submissions by Lilliputian

A hollow shell
The chill breeze whispers through
But barely a quiver on skin it caresses
Deep within, an emptiness extends
Where feeling itself seems dead
Yearning for warmth
A comforting glow
Yet at its touch, a hidden seed of anguish
A tangled dance
This push and pull
To crave and reject

a friend, you call me

yet, i, like an unseen shadow, linger

words trapped inside

leaving silent watches

the "why" echoes unanswered

a whispered voice

you failed, your worries left untold

so i stay here

trapped in my own guilt

a yearning shadow
