The Vacant Places
The holes.
The missing.
The place where peace should live
but something else nests there.
A blankness where love once lived.
Where you are left questioning
yourself,
your value,
slowly picked apart
by the very souls you trusted
with your heart.
About this poem

Tom
“but the very souls you trusted” or, by the very souls you trusted?
