Empty Air

Enigma seeps there in that space

Hollow

I stare and stare

Wishing you were there

The feeling that creeps

Steeps me in a tea so melancholy

I wish I was jolly

A folly of fallacy

You're my real fantasy

I can't shake it

The feeling I feel

It doesn't give me much zeal

The magnetic pull

Needing to fill a hole

In that space

In my heart

I'm scared of the dark

Scared of being lonely

If only-

You were here

Maybe I can imagine you sitting there

Your hair

Your laughter filling the air

Maybe if I close my eyes-

You'll magically appear

...

Nope

Still an empty chair

My heart aches, my heart quakes

And all I do is turn the other way

Notice your chair

Well

Notice you're not there

A tiny swivel

My head the pivotal-

Enemy

Of

My

Emotion

I don't like it

The feeling I get when I look there

The seemingly quiet air

It's eery

Unnerving

Undeserving

I know it's not fair

To either of us

This empty air

Distant memories we share

Distance

Existence

I'm realizing all too quickly

It was much better when you were there
