Void of Nothing

Something you felt missing
Way down deep inside,
Looking for an answer
That always runs to hide.

You feel it oh so close
Yet you cannot take a grasp,
Slipping through your fingers
Like water from the past.

Though you search in shadows,
Your heart sees what it's cost,
You refuse to listen
Because of what's been lost.

Sure it hurts a little
But that little feels a lot,
Just the time it's forgotten
It ties you in a knot.

You fill the hole with memories
That always find their day,
It is now you realize
This hole won't go away.

My friend we all have choices
But we can't fill a void
That keeps growing larger
As we stay annoyed.

Though our peace may wander
Just outside our grasp,
Don't chase it like a carrot
Because you're more than that.

Don't become the monster
Locked inside us all,
My friend you're only human,
We're all bound to fall.

Once that fate is realized,
You turn your heart to friends,
That void you thought was something
Becomes nothing in the end.
