A/N

I wrote this on a whim, feeling inexplicably depressed today. I know it might seem like rambling, but I’d like to hear your thoughts.

Imagine any character, any favorite breakup scene from your beloved TV serials, as this feeling is universal. For example:

- When Arnav saw Khushi in Shyam's arms (IPKKND).

- When Arnav left Khushi at the airport (IPKKND).

- When Shivay kicked out Anika from the Oberoi Mansion (Ishqbaaz).

You can envision it for Anika, Omkara, Gauri, Soumya, Bhavya, Rudra, Twinkle, Kunj or any character you relate to. Everyone has faced this moment at least once.

Emptiness....it's a feeling that defies description. If you haven't experienced it, you can't truly understand it. It's like floating in an abyss, neither joyous nor sorrowful, just engulfed in a void. Crying can be a release, a way to unburden oneself from the weight of pain. But what if you're unable to cry? How do you shed that crushing heaviness? And what if crying isn't enough? That's when you realize all that remains is this hollow sensation, this emptiness.

In my life, I've known sadness, happiness, good times, and bad. But never this emptiness....until I met someone who turned my world upside-down. With this person, I felt emotions and lived moments I never thought possible. They opened my eyes to new experiences and a new version of myself. And now, because of this person, I understand what it means to feel truly empty.

I wish I could convey this feeling, but how? It's difficult to articulate because if you haven't felt it, you won't grasp what it is.

'Love' is such a beautiful, simple word, yet it's incredibly complicated. I've heard countless stories of 'romantic love,' but I've only felt it for one person. I never got the chance to voice my feelings to them. Before I could, everything vanished, leaving me with nothing but this damn emptiness.

                       EMPTINESS

Emptiness, a silent cry,
A void where dreams go to die.
Floating in an endless space,
Neither joy nor sorrow's trace.

Tears can cleanse a wounded heart,
Release the pain, let it depart.
But when they’re trapped, refused to flow,
How can you let the anguish go?

In life, I've known both joy and pain,
Sunshine, laughter, love, and rain.
But never felt this hollow deep,
Until you left me, lost, to weep.

With you, I found a brighter me,
A world of possibilities.
You taught me love, you showed me light,
Then vanished, leaving endless night.

Love, a word so pure and sweet,
Complex threads beneath our feet.
For you, my heart was full of fire,
Now cold, alone, in dark desire.

Words unsaid, a love unvoiced,
Dreams shattered, left no choice.
Now all that's left, this silent scream,
Emptiness where once was a dream.

Emptiness, a feeling cold,
A story left, untold, unfolds.
If you’ve not felt its icy grip,
You’ll never know the sinking ship.

In every scene of heartbreak's art,
Lives this void, this aching part.
From lovers' arms to empty space,
Emptiness leaves its silent trace.
