empty words on empty paper
the poet writes
His life
with empty words
Trying to fix his heart
Once so torn
once so broken
Empty words on empty papers
Trying to fill, the empty void in his heart
empty words on empty paper
empty papers on empty words
Does not fill any empty void
empty words on empty paper
The poet writes
It's like bandaid
For a broken heart
the poet writes

for once so filled
to so empty
From forever to never
His void in his heart
He only has his empty words on empty papers
To fill his empty void in his empty heart

He was smiling once
Writing with love
He's crying now
Writing with blood
Writing only empty words
on empty papers
the poet writes
Empty words on empty papers

Also this one is very nice! I like how you insisted on the feeling of emptiness the poet seems not to be able to fill, because he lost what/who he loved. :)
