In The Beginning by Callertunez(op): 9:30pm On May 02, 2020
In The Beginning
.
The words were vague; without form, and void.
Emptiness was upon the face of my mind as my thoughts rowed their boats across the waters of my heart.
.
Vibrating angrily outside was the old generator set of my neighbor. The sound it produced literally obliterated every meaningful word my head managed to form.
.
It was a time when I felt empty and needed someone to help fill in the void that was gradually drowning me...
.
I picked up my phone, scrolled through the contact list, stopped at this particular number... But decided against lowering my thumb to touch that green call button.
I did it twice again, the same result I got.
.
So I decided to just write... 'But how can one so empty, fill in a blank page with words?' I asked me.
.
I picked up the pen anyway and said 'let there be words' and there were words, as my pen began to scribble down alphabets...
.
I divided the words. The first; the emptiness of my heart.
The second; the old rickety generator of my neighbor...
The third; a girl I want to tell how much I love but just won't.
And back to the emptiness of my heart.
.
After I finished writing, I didn't know if to see that *it was good*
.
Well in the beginning, I created the words on this page in my mind.
The words were without form, and void as emptiness was upon the face of my mind.
.
.
