Cherie M Sharpe Poetry

An Empty Place

There is a place I often find myself alone
Tunneling through the corners of my soul
Just wandering through
So lost like a little child
Searching for some sense of peace of mind
My heart so overwhelmed by this life
Still I can’t seem to express all that I feel right now
At this moment
Here in this place
Emptiness
Living life so far from reality
Where life is not lived it’s like a passing dream
Or a nightmare seeming never to wake
Can anyone really see
The emptiness I hide
And the tears I silently cry inside
Pain so deep it seems frozen in time
Yet my heart continues to weep
Lord fill this emptiness
Please Lord fill this emptiness
This empty place in me
