A Bowl Full of Nothing

A Bowl Full of Nothing

 

Having dropped another stitch,

She looked up, from the tear in her shawl

and my word, did she frown ..

 

What we seem to have here, she said,

without a shadow of doubt, is a shed load of

lies, broken promises and vows ..

 

But hey, keep your chin up love and

float upon clouds ..

She seemed intent on going up and up ..

 

While he, my friend was clearly spinning down

head first and into an empty bowl ..

Filled to the very top, with absolutely nothing ..

Written with a poetic pen for sure! The imagery gave me vision of a wife or girlfriend who caught their man doing wrong. He went down while she rose! Penned perfectly!
