Nothingness

What a dreadful thought
For I cannot write a single word
Like a singer without a tune,
A dancer without a beat.

It seems it lost its way
The words dance in the air
And All that's left are jumbled letters
With no meaning at all.

I cannot begin to describe
This feeling my heart holds
Even with a ballpen and an ink
My hands stood still
For I Cannot write even a blot.

Is this what they call empty?
Must be nice to feel something,
I'd take sadness or even anger
Rather than this hollow feeling
Slowly sipping in my being.

The moon shines longer tonight
And I ran out of words to say
The words spin in my head
yet
Even with these thousand letters
I spoke of nothing.
