Poem Eight (05/03/2025)

I cry to a void that has no answer for me

I scream and shout, trying to find a key

Though it is a lost cause, I have nothing to do but shout

Maybe it’s just a way to let it all out

I meld to abstraction for feelings I can’t quite place

Let my body float to another realm with no competition or race

Love is hard to see in a place of all black

Maybe it’s just me dealing with a mind that’s all wracked

Yet for all the fantasies I resort to just to cope

The Void has no answers nor a fountain of hope
