So little,
Nothing really
I’ve got to give
No love, no hatred
I can offer
No nothing
Really
No points to discuss
No arguments to defend
No lies to pretend
Watering
Paper flowers
In this so ever
Dry garden
Two lizards
Going out
To sunbathe
In the fading
Autumn sun
A hundred times
Broken heart
Is not enough
The lightest piece
Of light
A bit of nothing
A slight
Open mind.
Another soul
Gone.

Well done my friend. Emptiness is really a sad place to be.
have i ever felt that emptiness. emotions flowing and scrabbling around, yet to offer a word, opinion, solution, comfort, ANYthing, no, not possible... for the mind is empty...
Again, a thougthful, deeply-felt poem, and Sooo well done Dulce! Thank you.
And thank God the mind is sometimes empty. If it were not, I'd long ago had been crazily locked away....
Scenario:
Hey!!! How come there is a doorknob on the outside, but not the inside of my door? And why are these walls made of mattresses? And where did everyone go? And who took my clothing?
Am I again alone and lonely? Holy Shish Kebab (without skewers!)
So this is what "crazy" is all about?...--grinning!
Love and Peace, Dulce-Girl
It's a really good poem. I especially like the "watering paper flowers." But poem schmoem. I hope that you are not realy feeling this way. :-(
I am loving the...
'No lies to pretend
Watering
Paper flowers'
Like SarahA I love
" no lies to pretend, watering paper flowers"
so creative Dulce.. I hate the feeling of feeling alone, I do like being alone when I so choose. A quote I like says
" Bowed by the weight of centuries he leans upon his hoe and gazes on the ground, the emptiness of ages in his face, and on his back the burden of the world. ~ Edwin Markham
This really is very moving for me.
You capture that feeling when you have lost hope and can't be bothered to find it.
So beauty and deep...your soul talking..
Kisses:)
We all have emptiness from time to time. I loved the poem but I am trying to grasp the part about the lizards. I will give it some more thought.
too soon - too soon
we say good bye too soon
Clearly stated. Just there, not contributing nor taking, flat.
I like reading you.
Secretia
Such deep words. Very cleverly written.
I just wanted to say 'Thankyou' for the kind birthday wishes you left for me too :)
beautiful
touching

sad

My mind is all over the place today. I'm finding it really hard to read poetry.
The way I feel today it's like reading a dictionary. I'll be back tomorrow.
So well sung on emptiness. Oh! Emptiness had been my home for some time now!
Always believe that there is a future, that the future will bring brightness and love. It will. Emptiness kills. Never allow it.
I'm with those above that said, very well done! We all seem to gravitate to the lines: "No lies to pretend
Watering
Paper flowers"...very nice!
Hugs, hugs!
Dulce, I pray that your emptiness has filled by now, or at least will be by morning in the Gran Canaria....
Love you, and PEACE for you,too!
Watering paper flowers...I love that part. ¡Eres una maravilla!
emptiness
but inspired
beauty
