The Empty Room

Sometimes, I find myself

 

trapped in an empty room.

 

But... this specific room

 

isn't filled with an oppressive darkness.

 

The walls don't whisper

 

a devilish call in my ears.

 

And cold doesn't capture me

 

in an icy embrace.

 

In this room, it is still.

 

It is silent.

 

It is hollow.

 

And I am just there

 

sharing space among the nothingness.

 

In this room I should feel peace,

 

perhaps even serenity,

 

but there I stand and

 

I am impracticable.

 

I am insignificant.

 

I am inane.

 

And I am entirely alone.
