Husk

Blank is what I’m drawing

Numb is how I’m feeling

Reeling from the leaving

That you did to me

Stuck in the fog

Of voices shouting questions

That I have no answer to

I keep going through the motions

Of my day to day

Hoping that the pain

Will eventually recede

That I will come alive again

Reinstate myself

As a person amongst people

Instead of this empty shell

That you left behind
