this cavernous sprawl seeks fulfilment,
a splash of something in the gloom,
no reflection in a cardboard puddle
but something solid, something whole,
then the emptiness shall lick parched lips,
ponder on what it was, is, will become,
and this husk shall gasp an asphyxiation,
as if having swallowed the perfect dream.
Thank you for reading

This is wondrous. I had to reread it a couple of times, it was so exquisite.
Thank you. That’s very kind. 🙂
