Empty, Simply

Poetry — when heartache meets questions

I feel a bit empty, simply If you asked how I thought my life would end up Well, it’s ended up a bit empty I had hopes and dreams, but they were never enough

I feel a bit empty, simply If you asked if this what my life would look like at 38 Well, it’s ended up a bit mpty I thought I’d have a wife and kids, am I now too late?

I feel a bit empty, simply If you asked if I knew the next steps of my journey Well, it’s ended up a bit mty I had direction but one wrong turn left me burning

I feel a bit empty, simply If you asked what I seek and what I’ve been praying for Well, it’s ended up a bit mt I can only pause, breathe, and wish there were more

I’m just a bit empty, simply
