Vacuum Vacuum. Vacuum. I cannot speak. I open my lips But no sound comes. Swallowed whole By the emptiness. I say Only What I'm expected to say. I know not Whose thoughts I speak. I cry out But no-one hears. Trapped In the distant darkness Of my soul. I open my eyes And see nothing where Glory and Freedom should be So I close them again. There is nothing to see. Silenced. Blinded By the Emptiness. I listen instead To whatever voice that guides me. To whoever who calls me. And obey Not knowing Who is calling the shots. It is all I can do. Call to me In the vacuum. Beckon me Through the vacuum. Tell me who I am. And I Will Believe. ~
