The Void

Take it for what it is...

Fulfillment

Bullshit

I'll never even

Taste with a

Single taste bud

The secureness

Of a needed

Darkened hole that

Will never be

Filled

Enlightened

Oh, whoa is me

For I can't even

See

What's right in front

Of me

Why cant I just

Be happy

Be okay

Be filled with joy

When everything I have

Should be filling

My void

Searching

Always searching

For answers

For love

For acceptance

For the ability

To just be

Me

I can't concentrate

On the absurdities of life

I can't look

At the realities of life

Floating

Not flying

Crawl back into my hole

Delve into the deep

Of the void

That will always be there

Because

No matter what

I tell myself

No matter what

I do to change

No matter what

I think

I'm just stuck

Floating in the darkness.
