Emotional Emptiness


			Back once more to the 
			Emotional emptiness 
			That my life seems to gravitate towards.
			So beautiful are those stars all the way up there,
			But always out of reach -
			I have flights that soar so high,
			But they always end up dropping back down to earth -
			The events never let my emotions reach
			Escape velocity.
