Emptiness

© T. B. Jackson

I walk into an empty space
Void of all but air to breathe
Longing for companionship
But then fear soon outweighs the need

Fear of what I can't be sure
It permeates throughout my mind
Etched into my deepest thoughts
Stifling my heart's desires

It could be said I run from life
Or shy away from human touch
Buried in a lightless dream
Without hope and without love

And time is long, not so with life
But still no sign presents ahead
So as I wonder what could be
In loneliness my heart laments
