Empty Hopes, Hopeless Emptiness. Poem by broken jar of clay

Empty Hopes, Hopeless Emptiness.

Rating: 5.0


Struggling with questions within me,
I seek for answers still;
Unseen tears shed every night,
So heavy they could almost kill.

What is the whole idea of life,
What do i seek to achieve?
Where is joy when there is strife,
There's nothing good for me to receive.

Day into night,
Left to right,
I wander on with hope fading
Hope unreal,
Hope stealed,
I suffer with these questions within.

I am so lonely,
Accompanied only with this question.
What is life?
What IS life?

Empty hopes,
Hopeless emptiness,
Worthless dreams,
Dreamless worth.

Loneliness within me,
I fear myself,
I fear the future,
I fear being alive,
I fear life itself.

LIfe isn't life without pure joy.
What is life?
What then is life?

Empty hopes,
Hopeless emptiness.

Exploring the depths of emptiness, the hollowness inside is explored like timeless zone. This poem is a powerful reminder of a faithless existentialism that many people wrestle.10/10
