I think I wrote this when I was 15.


Image

The cry I heard;
it was not there.
I listened again.
But only I was here.
I felt so lost,
so empty, so gone.
I felt that none
of my achievemnets were done.
The empty air
that I sat in
just occupied space.
That space was so thin.
I cried and cried.
It echoed so long.
I thought I was living,
but I was wrong.
All of the things
I thought I had learned
were just a mirage,
now suddenly burned.
Yes, I was dying.
My life was done.
My every experience
was wasted and gone.

Jeremy D. Halstead
