Emptiness

By Maanya Kaur Sethi

Emptiness has overtaken every ounce of my body that's running with a wasted breath

And I feel like one day it will leave my inner soul to death Brutally murdered, tortured ruthlessly

Inability of having any reason for catching another

breath, sitting helplessly

Falling into an illusion of my own thoughts overthinked And wishing the outcomes 'overthinked' wouldn't be

true, but since they are, I sinked

I sinked into a massive, hollow opening created of all my tears ever fallen down

And it is deep enough for 6 of me's to drown

And I’m still waiting for a leaned hand l'd call a saviour

How senseless because they are why sadness I’m unable to bear

And now sadness has crept in

And swept off all the happiness in a swing

And I’ve never really known the warm feeling when

everything lies still and brings a smile on your face I've never even had flowers in my vase.

Broken pots, soil scattered,

And my wish of seeing the sun is always shattered.
