Idle within emptiness
Disappointment fills the air
A chilling wind of harshness
Sweeping seasons of despair...
Fingernails bitter purple
A tousle of shredded hair
Weakened limbs and fragile nerves
Dreams strangled to disrepair...
How long 'till the sun comes out?
Forever must still be there
Without the light all things fade
Darkness makes them disappear....
A burning torch within me
Faith, the everlasting flair
Scorching both sense and reason
Too blind to show heaven near...

Thanks for commenting on my poem, Dying. I love this poem. It's so deep and most people can relate to feeling this way some time in their lives. I can relate for sure. Great work! !
Nicely done. All emotion selected are indeed showing revolt to the emptiness.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
not only revolt to the emptiness, but a longing for reason for the emptiness, a treason to itself, a bitter taste of sugar like, ... wow very well done 10! !
