EMPty


The ink well is barren
but I write
in my heart
in my mind
be quiet
be kind
and understand
my silence
my bible lies closed
emptied the words
trying to understand
why He is gone
why I am alone
digging deep
to find a morsel
scraping
 the bottom
wringing a drop
of blood
the last one
love that is lost
is hard to find
you try
it fly
till you stop
your heart dry
hope fade
not one blade
barren soil
the thirst
begs for more
constricting
your throat
all around
they laugh
and love
and live
and dance
the prance
of life
earth spins
but the Sun
stands still
burning away
your will
to stay
another day
the seed
of your seed
small
fragile
filled with joy
holds your hand
soiled with sand
and smiles
hugging you
holding you
filling
the empty space
last drop
a tear
you hold
her near
the words
return
the Book
closed still
start to fill
your being
you thank
your God
you know
it is there
quiet and still
washing
away
your will
you know
understand
why words
stay
