Of Emptiness
Full
of failure. I always feel
afraid
that I'm not
sufficient so
those I love are
left behind me.
The mistakes of my past are
what shape my present.
My hope and trust are
hurt
beyond
healing
There is
NO
redeeming me.
And what I believe is
that the hope of tomorrow
is fleeting, and all I know is
Emptiness
This is a reversible poem that can be read backwards (line by line) as well as forward.
In this case. The backwards reading has an opposite meaning.
