The soul of the forgotten



In the depths of my soul, 
There lies an emptiness, 
A void that I can't fill, 
No matter how hard I press. 

It's like a black hole, 
A vacuum that sucks me in, 
And the more that I struggle, 
The more I'm swallowed within. 

I try to fill it with people, 
With laughter, love, and light, 
But nothing seems to stay, 
And it always fades from sight. 

So I sit with this emptiness, 
And I make it my friend, 
For in its dark embrace, 
I find a peace that doesn't end. 
For it reminds me that I'm human, 
And that I'm not alone, 
That we all have our emptiness, 
And it's okay to let it be shown. 

So if you too feel the void, 
The emptiness deep within, 
Just know that you're not broken, 
And that it's okay to let it out.

Without you, i feel incomplete
i am trying to  fall in temptations w you

Silence are my words
tears is my pain
hate is my strength
a broken heart from a distance
does my existence matter?
sleepless nights
terrible nightmares
a painful and miserable human life and what comes after death

a desirable puzzle
lost in the distance
an overdose of pills
weeks of starvation
months in coma
fear in my eyes
hate in my soul
what's  lost is now found!

About this poem

The poem is about a void that cannot be filled by existing "love". The eco silence of a room as you seem to smile from a distance, tears is you nightmares and laughter in the dreams. It connects touches in our hearts and love in disguise. Black (darkness) shows power
