Ennui

I thought

Only sadness

And happiness

Matter.

I thought

Nothing could be worse

Than loneliness.

But when once I felt

An emotion so unidentifiable

That it might go somewhere 

Between smiles and frowns,

So empty was it

That even when tears formed

They wouldn't come out.

Everywhere I searched

To call it a name

Befitting its abominability.

Ennui-

That's its name.
