Empty yet forever full

Shardelle Mercer 2004 (Red Deer)

I'm constantly empty
Yet always full
It's hard to think
I see the shadows when I blink.

Nor happy, nor sad
Am I going mad?
Am I going insane?
Thinking so many thoughts
I can never seen to connect the dots

About this poem

It's about how my mind has been thinking and how I've felt the past few weeks.
