Emptiness
I keep trying
To fill this emptiness
With noises that I once abhored
Once it dies down
The emptiness creeps out again
I keep trying
To fill this emptiness
With chores that wear me down
Where my thoughts are killed
And my own voice drowns
In the middle of the night
I am woken up
By that emptiness
Which reminds me of your absence
