Invisible paint
Describes thoughts of nothing
On an empty canvas.
Hollow words
Litter the pages
Of a book that has not been started.
A haunting melody
Echoes a songs
That yet to be sung.
How do you kindle a fire
Without a light?
How do you paint
Thoughts of nothing?

This is a piece I created about the infamous feeling of having something to say and no way to truly say it.
