Why Irony?

By MGood

Missing in a lost world.
Bound by invisible threads.
Trapped in open space.
Arriving departure, creeping blatantly,
Fills me empty,
As we pretend the truth.
The pleasure in the pain,
To love, to hate.
To give, to take.
Anticipating regret.
I need your nothing,
To start the end.

Definitly a short one, but as fox put it very effective. I like the way you ended it as well. Wonderfully done. -Morb

This reminds me of Friar Lawrence's speech in Romeo and Juliet. He used irony in a very clever way and it comes out in your work.
