Emptiness

A poem to validate the voids within and the feelings voids can bring

The empty Friday evenings,

The silence of my apartment,

The only sound of my wall clock,

And the slow rain outside,

Pile of clothes on my chair,

Dishes in my sink,

My leftover tea in a cup,

My plants staring at me,

The laptop I just closed,

Without completing the work, I thought I will complete this week,

My urge to fill this silence with something,

My urge to sit in it for some more time,

My urge to not change anything,

My urge to change everything,

My urge to be here,

My urge to be somewhere else,

My urge to scream,

My urge to not utter a word, just write!!
