When my mum died it felt surreal
My dad was shattered to pieces including my sisters
I felt nothing
The nothingness continued for a little while
Everyone felt anguish, grief, misery
I felt emptiness
The emptiness gnawed away at my bones
The emptiness paraded around me
The emptiness poked the tears out of my eyes
The emptiness confused me
I stopped fighting against the emptiness
That's when the pain and surreality stopped
But it's back
The emptiness wants to be my friend
The emptiness wants to destroy me
The emptiness wants to remind me of what I've lost again
The emptiness is back with a vengeance
