SpaceA Poem by Norrin ShearerDark, empty, vast The void beyond earth is nothing Dark, cold alone Out in space there is no light Dark, hopeless, frightening The weight of loneliness is too much to bear Dark, crushing, relentless The air leaves my chest Dark, blight, sickness Hope is extinguished like the flame of a dying star Dark, Ominous, Blank Despair fills my lungs when I need oxygen instead Dark, hollow, desolate I am lost in this endless expanse Dark, empty, vast
