In the emptiness
Life echoes uncanny feelings
Like a sleep-walker
Guided by unknown hands
Gestures the soul to follow
The vision is hazy
Among the veils of mist
Life fades in colors
Reflects shades of grey
Every step tramples
The original destiny
Didactic lesson of life
Sleep-walker educates
Always slumberous moments
Hallucinations tickle the mind
Following is easy
When eyes are closed
And mind retires early
Writ is the elegy of Life
Trembling words
Dipped in mortal ink©
Your words speaks the feelings of many who have experienced the feeling of being empty and worthless…. Nice one
