Torn Between the Two

Emptiness is the loneliness,
That is destructive in many ways.
It rivals the wonderfulness,
Of hope's mysterious rays.

Hope

Hope is the action that makes us cry,
It brings out the loving,
The caring, and the smiles.
It carries us through the empty trials.

RE: RE: empty?

emptiness is simply
the stuff that's in between
so we can tell the difference
betwixt the fat and lean.

dead time

First frost, hard ground, dry weeds,
life outdoors just passing through,
no more growing till we see
the Spring.

Emptiness

Emptiness is my loneliness,
That settles in this day.
It destroys the hopeful,
In thousands of saddening ways.

empty?

actually, it's filled with fog
and fields, and little hills.
the emptiness you feel inside
is emptiness that chills.

RE: empty?

Emptiness is nothing
Nothing fills all spaces
In near and outermost places
Magic Glue for all that’s here

No longer empty

Emptiness: a promise
that no one else before you
left their mark upon this place,
leaving you with this.

RE: time

October rime lies on the field,
a blanket protecting the seed.
preserving the crop, providing the place
preparing for springtime's need.

Frozen season,
not much fun.
Summer's warmth, once more,

Ultimate emptiness

Fog fills every empty crevice,
leaving it empty still,
as still as the sound between our souls.
An echo dies away unheard.

Echoes only exist
when heard even in ghostly mists
Never desist!Emptiness is a fantasy
Even dimming stars forever insist.

time

the worst is empty time.
quiet hours, sullen days,
nights when sleep eludes us
and memory betrays.

full of love and such
old man in a small palace
vacuum and plenum touched

RE: RE: Ultimate emptiness

and atoms all actual and tangible are the pieces of real which somehow ground the earth...
which i sow and now reap these destructive atoms and your seed...
planted and crashing about the vacuum all my own, a wanton old womb and this need now full-grown.

ice particles fill the air
still and heavily cold,
laying a carpet of ice atop
the soil, eternally old.

Ultimate empathy

Echoes heard in empty mists --
quietly but firmly they insist
someone here was speaking,
our curiosity was piquing.

echoing whispers reveal design

Suppose there were
no old men in tidy castles,
how would the young dsicover

Youth will celebrate
but never understand
futility, until
it's over the hill.

RE: Ultimate empathy

myku in the middle of this sleepless night
mortality, fear, set my monkey mind to flight
family like chains of flowers bind hard bone
write it out, ride the doubt, then dream alone

silence carried me around
all those feelings packed away
Things I lost, but never found
