emptiness

(This needs revision. But it's my truth tonight. I might make it pretty later.)

this place screams of emptiness.

we are the waiting ones.

you hide it so well until

you're not blind

then it's so loud.

the air screams

wind blows dust wildly.

fill me up fill me up

make me worthy.

your eyes search for mine

for what a smile cannot convey.

a silent plea

a scream for life.

I see it in your eyes

your need

beyond what you've been taught

by the liar.

a green strand of hope,

I hold it.

why am I not visible?

your eyes search

my invisible seas.

where are we

to find your life,

we wait for your plea

to echo with the birds

to find you.
