The emptiness grew within her
Caused withering of the light
It had begun to devour her
It once shone with all its might
Flailing in the embrace of darkness
Where the fire once blazed
The piercing grip made her helpless
Not even a sliver of light gazed
Lost inside her own creation
Nothing...no audio...just vacant
No words to describe her devastation
It was her secret held within the dark

Intriguing. Speaks of some self inflicted life changing event followed by regret. Such may be the case with a woman who chooses abortion followed by post-partum depression. I throughly enjoyed this carefully crafted poem.
