A Wasteland of Emptiness
There is a wind blowing inside us, thru a wasteland of emptiness
Without the possibility of germinating to fulfill our potential
Our nothingness is an internal vacuum with an insatiable appetite
A black hole at our core, threatening to suck everything else in
Our lives are essentially hollow, lacking inner strength and vigor
We seem to have lost our insides somewhere
Our guts have been removed and discarded or lost
The void within gives a painful, drawn feeling to our faces
We know that we are doomed creatures, fighting hopelessly for life

The void within gives a painful, drawn feeling to our faces
We know that we are doomed creatures, fighting hopelessly for life

Brilliantly written, Keith. Into the list it belongs. Some fight, some surrender. Flawlessly executed. Appreciate you.

What a powerful, my
This wasteland within us can be very burdening. But on the other hand this void is full of possibilities and answers if we look deep within in silence. A meaningful and thoughtprovoking piece!

Two sides to every coin. We should try and weigh out the possibilities. Thanks Sappho.
