An Empty Mind

My mind holds no power

or cryptic message…

…there is no eclectic collection of memories

or secrets…

..my mind remains demur

for it is forever an empty mind.

My mind wishes for farrago

and it hopes for perplexity.

Alas, however hard it tries,

precious thoughts are never perused…

…my mind remains dispirited

for it is forever an empty mind.

My mind fears oblivion

and it fears disuse.

Every day is a moment wasted.

A full surrender to an early demise…

…my mind remains evanescent

for it is forever an empty mind.

My mind knows it is ethereal

but it cannot treasure…

My mind has witnessed calamity

but it remains without a voice...

My mind is forever an empty mind

because it is forever destroyed…
