EMPTINESS

24 hours lost in gloom and pain,
And there it happened again!
I leaned towards expectations and the expected came
And went,and all that remains is frustration and shame!

A sham of a day with precious moments slipping out of hand,
And now looking at them here I stand
But what's to gain now when it has been lost
When of emptiness I have paid the cost

But all's not bleak as the clock ticks ahead
Have to face the challenges that I dread
Tomorrow is another day
There will be another way
Where a time like this there won't be
because not being me doesn't suit me.
