The Empty Spaces Mood
Tuesday, September 22, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

So much of my loneliness is when I feel the wind blowing through the empty spaces in my soul...it bites and it licks and it tells me I should be full...

 

The Well

 

I came to you

For sustenance

Gazed into your depths

Dark waters reflected me.

 

I poured my pain

Desires, despairs

Into the heart

Waiting for you

To overflow, to reject

what I gave.

 

But the well

So deep, endless

Held its will

Shared its bounty

Filled me

With spirit and life.

 

I did not want

To greedily drink

This water of life

Yet I could not

walk away empty.

 

It is painful

To not know

Its Source

I am not a part

of that deep, dark world.

 

Still I gratefully

Partook, praying

Some day the well

Would find me full.

    I'm sorry you feel empty. I can relate. Therapy/meds can help you heal. I suggest you look into it. Life's too short to be miserable! Take Care,Katie

    Great prayer! And that is what you call hope. Something that one can not find or ever have without wanting it first.
    Luvin you,
    Hope all is well with your boy!
