    Th Empty One Dreams
    He struggles on, through the night
    Groping in blind rage, searching for light
    Determined to be free, desperate for touch
    Praying for hope, because it means so much
    Blackness engulfs him
    Darkness unmans him
    This simple man heeds a certain call
    But, is he willing to take the fall?
    Through hours of sleeplessness the ghosts close in
    He knows every night this will happen again
    Dreams destroy him
    Waking eludes him
    Late into the night, his dreams are unceasing
    Twisting his mind, never releasing
    Tearing away all the hope that was left
    Little did you know his name was Jeff
    The Empty One dreams

    rooms in myself I haven't explored as yet. Go with the flow of dream content, then release it. Try every day to soak in the blessings in life which will add material to your dreamscape.

    This scene does not sound empty to me but rather a cauldron to growth which is being blocked. Life wants out of the box, the more you resist the more it persists. Don't mind me, I've been digging around in my subconscious looking for rooms in myself

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
