Two five letter words

To be alone

To be empty

                Two of the most

   Terrifying

   Real

                        Emotions. Happenings.

        In life.

They are bonded together, a package

They seek and attack

At your weakest moments

Then hide beneath you

Seep into your skin

Deep into your soul

Until you forget all

The light

The memories

The friends

The joy

All the happiness turned to fear

All smiles turned to tears

Tears rhymes with fears and the fear brings each tear upon your eyes

 

When will it go away?

Can you?

Will you?

Help Me.

[Glen Yumang Manese]

I like the usage of the two words... and this really hits you as a reader... I would suggest... I see you wrote this a while back... to stress those 2 words... more by underlining them... grabs the reader to remember them throughout the entire read...

[Parsimony]

A resonating poem on the associations of simple words. Packs the punch of desolation. I hope this poem is merely convalescence. Take care.

Anna,this is a pleasant surprise for you.
This is the first response after you added the amazing piece three years ago.
The piece carries a wonderful message about forgetting.
Great write.
