no bondage, no dependency
a pious hallow
speechless and calm
ocean of nothingness
an earth crammed with abundance of heaven
wow! this empty’s up to the brim…
a courage so incomparable
to conquer the silence alone
faded promises
on prismatic films of deceit
that only I can see
yes, this empty’s up to the brim…
a fine tuning with loneliness
cocooned yet proud
one is destined to be alone
when two is a crowd
dynamic exchange of indifference
why empty is up to the brim…
let me carve and polish
tunnel of endless night
open enough for some to peak
shut tight for some to hide
a very noisy mute ‘n quiet
my empty is up to the brim.
