My dear friend how long it has been
Quiet a while since I stirred inside your soul
Your heart is stitched a little more
No good my dear, time for yet another raging war
Follow the path with me into the darkness
Where nothingness lies
And watch the air intoxicate our souls
We can fill the throne in among this death
Side by side we'll sit as king and queen
For your hand I hold and your heart I cup
In these vicious hands you find inviting
You will learn that emptiness is something
I can teach you quiet easily
You don't need me once that's over
Just a new victim who needs to learn
Hello my dear friend, it has been too long
You have been better I take it?
Not needing my hand or needing my shoulder
You left, without me
So now I will drag you through this pit of death
To be my queen on the throne
You'll wear this crow so high on your head
And cry as every butterfly falls
I'll hold you like a lover
And treat you like a friend
But my friend, my dear
I am emptiness,
I cannot let you go
You are mine for eternity now
Join me at the throne
Because I am the king and you my queen
Author notes
going from the opinion as if i wear actually emptiness (the emotion)

the king and queen of heart breaking lonliness, nicely written...good luck..mm

interesting response, as emptiness... chilling thought to be trapped as "Queen of Emptiness" (or King in my case!) I would beg the line 'just passing through, thank you!' but funny how in emptiness one sees no way out, panic, desperation surface... all in all your idea here would be a great scene/character in some future story... I shall make a note of that... the Queen of Emptiness, for eternity... many possibilities there...
