She is listless
empty--
like a cracked shell
I can hear the teardrops
echoing in rimmed affection
My heart never ached more
in the silence you left behind
My ears never heard such pain
in silent words
I am listless
empty--
isolated in the space
in which you contained me.
Author notes
not the best, I know, but I hope it's acceptable and liked enough.
