Poetry: The void

by Heather Ruede

Created on: July 28, 2010

"Into the Void"

she found her self alone,
forever alone.

the ones she loved-
family, friends, her lover-

disappeared into the void

the void that stared back
into her eyes

taunting her
haunting her

wanting her to jump in
and disappear as well

she struggled with the decisions

to stay, to be alone
forever

no one else around
no one to hold her

or to jump in
go after them all

and take a chance

biting her lip
she screamed
she let go
and ran straight into the void

straight into another life
