The Haunting
September 23, 2022
An emptiness sits deeply within me
gravely
Haunting
No matter the circumstances
It reminds me
It lingers and sends those away
Gives out a cry of pure agony
Like a child of Cain
I obscure it daily
But the hole widens
With each attempt to make me
Feel something
It stays
It deepens
And it writhes
It depends on my emotions
consuming me when I’m breathless
and when I think I’m out of deep
It tells me
That it is my only friend
The only one who knows
It may be right
How can there be another
Who will accept, and consume me
Like the gaping hole in me has
