what is the feeling of emptiness?

is it sometimes the hunger i feel? or the

existential void that creeps up when i don't expect it?

what makes me feel empty?

i ate this morning, enough i think

to last me the day.

but my stomach hurts.

and my heart.

my heart hurts when i least expect it.

coming home from a busy day;

sitting down in my chair and looking,

at my screen

or at the wall,

i am suddenly tired

my mind is now caught up with the state of my body

and i think i have to sleep,

now

and to bed i go

into my dreams i go

laid down

and counting to 63

and closing my eyes

and to sleep i go

until morning comes, and

my alarm rings

and i feel empty again
