My heart is like an empty terminal Sometimes it feels things too deeply Ruthless and threatening Tender but deafening Knowing whether to stay or go Seeing things for what they do not show Waiting in line to retrieve my ticket Constantly missing every minute It’s like the runway is far too long I never make … Continue reading Empty Terminal
