A Child Filled With Emptiness Poem by Cynthia Sok

Walking on this lonely road of lost memories
I remember the dawn of my day
of the innocent child
who brought joy to everyone's heart
but also sorrow
this child was tormented
by an unknown pain that couldnt be healed
it brought dark days in this child's silent world
he felt the loss of comfort
the touch of their sweet words
couldn't cut through the deafning winds
it brought no peace to him in all his years
it only left him empty
