Empty words - That’s what it is. An answer To something more concrete than a dream, More true than a hope. Not empty, - Void of meaning. Full instead - Overbrimming with potential A hook to reality. Those are the words Of my mind - Rigid and tense, Controlling, compelling, Raw and imperfect. But they are empty And they are me. Acceptance is love, As it is pride. To love me Is not to pick and choose But to be and Believe. Embrace. Accept. I feel my pain, I live it, I am it. Here I am. I am also more. Empty words, Full with life. An answer.
