Absence of the heart
by
Sherene Delgado
An empty shell
with not even hope left inside
An empty heart
With no love inside for myself
As I live
I know I destroy what is around me
I leave only my destructive presence
The world changes around us
I do not
I live separately
Keeping my distance from the possible pains of life
I don't want to fall apart
Yet I can not stay whole
And in the end
As time has shown me before
I am left once again alone.
