Literature Text

I am the empty space
in your dreams where
heroes come and heroes go -
but no-one is your hero.

I am the nothingness
in your heart where
there once was love
and now there is no-one.

I am the lifeless
memory in your arms.
An insubstantial shadow
that you cannot hold.

I am the love-shaped
hole in your life that
no-one else can fill -
you will always need me.

Very powerful, especially from that time frame ago. I like the way the word choice rolls off the tongue & into the heart like a feeling of emptiness.
