Empty Commotion

A glimpse slowly trailing away
from the corner of the eye
disappearing into the dark silent lanes.
A moment, in just a tiny moment
time travelled backwards
sinking the heart, sinking the soul
Something stirred within that left numb
a feeling, an emotion untouched.
Questions flew, digging something deep
And then deeper than before.
For first time there were no answers
Nothing black, nothing white
Like a bolt from the blue.
Unexpected the frenzy, uninvited the pain
Something unfelt, something untouched
as heart and mind froze with commotion,
of too many things and yet a void.
Bottled up within, or already let out?
Confusion for no answers come forth
just a well building up in the eyes
and without a warning;
the tears flow.
