Empty Spaces Poem by Stephanie van Oudtshoorn
Empty Spaces
there are many things in life
that can make the heart
be more
of a whole
most spaces you need to understand
and fill for yourself
some are filled only
by love
given to another
when you left
you took that part of me
i can live without it
but without it
i can't know happiness
or feel complete
return the piece of my heart
you stole
its mine to give
never yours to keep
you left me
with an empty space
return what you stole
so that the empty space
can become whole

This is so heartfelt and beautiful, Stephanie. Ahhh, love... the most beautiful of emotions and the most heartbreaking. Warmest regards, CJ

I really like this poem. It sits with you and gets under your skin. And I really like the lack of capitalisation as well. Just like empty spaces with the words. Or maybe I'm just bein too analytical. Nice poem though.: 0)
