The more I filled it
The emptier I felt.
I filled it with liquid; I felt thirsty.
I filled it with air; I felt breathless.
I filled it with food
I felt hungry.
I filled it with words,
I felt stupid
I filled it with information,
I felt ignorant.
I filled it with sound,
I felt deaf.
I filled it with light,
I went blind.
Dejected,
I filled it with a sun, and
I felt a black hole within.
