The Empty Void

So many things have come to change

Life is no longer the same

I’ve seen the light; I’ve seen the way

Because I’ve grown, and made mistakes

But no occurrence is in vain

In me woman’s what remains

Locked inside is all the shame

Tied up and bound in endless chains

And at the end of every day

Only time decides my fate

Only seconds screen the pain

And hollow words fill up the page

 I locked the hurt inside a cage

The key I buried with the rage

 And though my heart I tried to save

An empty void is what remains
