Unoccupied

How will you measure the depth

Of this emptiness that 

Follows me around day and night,

When you, engaged with your cheerful company,

Lively and loud ambiance, every second

Of your time is wonderfully occupied.

How could you ever look as far 

As my vacant eyes can, 

There's nothing to look forward to,

Dreading every creeping moment.

Bland advice, words of wisdom 

Are nothing but impracticalities.

Wish to brighten my day, if you do,

Then take a step yourself,

Come now, yes now,

And take my loneliness away.
