Emptiness

Emptiness
By Sha Najak

Moulded with the ability to think
Carved into a successful career
Blessed with a face to turn heads
Even more so, a soft heart for the oppressed

Emptiness settled in
Now well in womanhood

Looking back she knew
The one step she missed
Had an adverse effect
To where she stands now

Forward she sees
Struggles she will need to make
But the Beloved she knows she must find
To welcome death with life
