Into the empty.....




when I cried out once
into the empty
you heard, you brushed my hair
back from my face
with a shaking brittle finger

I see you sit, your aching head
resting on your hand
heart right there, in your eyes
and all I want to do
is touch your smile

I will, tomorrow
when the world becomes real
and a new place is born
out where the fence
was falling down
