Prompt 131: Empty

Thanks to Snow White for this week's prompt, empty. And thanks for the poem and image.


You
Silver lining
In my cloud of life..

You
Ray of hope
In my gloomy days..

You
The rainbow
In my colorless life..

You
My teacher
Of life's many hues..

You
Who taught me
Affection, care, happiness..
Fights, sadness, disappointment..

You
Left me one day..
I realised that you taught me
About all colors of life.

You forgot just one color..
Emptiness

  7. great prompt - loved the poem, thought-provoking and heartbreaking - the color of emptiness perhaps can't be taught, only experienced...
