Trapped: A Poem

I wake up and see nothing, barren walls and barren skies

No stars in sight, no hand to hold

The past reminds me of the good memories: the groups of stars in the sky, and the warm arm being wrapped around my shoulders.

He who was the flashlight that lit my dark path, he who was the supportive encouragements and the loving gazes.

Now, there's nothing. Nothing to lift me up and find my home in this vast abyss.

I walk around, but I can't see my path.

There's no light, there's nothing that can guide me to my destiny.

The stars are inexistent

There's no presence near me.

There's no human.

The boy that loved me and the boy that I wanted to love me is no longer there.

And even if he is there, I can't see him.

I don't see his smiles, or feel his affection and love.

He's gone, maybe he left me.

Maybe he wanted to chase another destiny.

Maybe I wasn't the right path for him.

And now, I'm lost in limbo

Forever trying to find him, but failing with every step of the way.

Trapped.

In this void of nothingness.

Smiling at nothing.

Tears draped across my cheeks

Wishing that he'll come back.

And light up my path again.
