You don't know
Emptiness
Until you have
Everything
And yet you have
Nothing,
When what you want
Really really want
Cannot be had
For any price
Or at any time,
No amount of strength
No amount of patience
Will subdue your desires
And it kills you from within
Unable to replace it,
Right in the middle of
Tangible and not,
An endless fire
A breath that never comes,
An is that never was
And never will be,
Reality is never more
Colder or more surreal...
