Baronhawk's Nest

Emptiness as a concept
is an absence of content
a container emptied out
without recompense.

Hollowness is a heart
with no hope inside
a tirade of regrets
and bitter diatribes.

Bitterness is a man
for whom there's no turning back
caught up in events
he cannot seem to counteract.

Helpless is a soul
without direction
out of touch with the world
losing all his convictions.

Sadness is a tear
shed for many seasons
cries of fear
uttered in total silence.

Numbness is described
as a lack of sensation
a person that's deprived
of feelings and emotions.

Hopeless is a tale
of a man's misadventures
doomed to fail
in all his endeavours.
