I like how your poem explores the theme of emotional emptiness by portraying the void as an immense darkness encountered in everyday life, triggered by moments of sadness or farewell.
Nice how it contrasts this despair with ineffective self-affirmations, symbolized by pep talks and positive quotes, which are revealed to be inadequate and ultimately deceptive.
The turning point emphasizes the importance of accepting one’s imperfections and the permission to feel failure and pain without forcing a façade of positivity. In doing so, the poem advocates for embracing authentic emotions and finding empowerment in vulnerability, suggesting that acknowledging the void can lead to a more genuine experience of life. 👍🏻😀
