The Void

There’s a place inside each one of us
That cannot be denied
Escape is evanescent
Every time it’s even tried
And countless games of love
With which we toyed
They never filled the void
It takes some getting used to
Some days are not so bad
When happiness eludes you
But you’re not exactly sad
It’s the movie
That you thoroughly enjoyed
But it did not fill the void
So do we stand alone without connection
While caprioling silently through space
Or is it just the longing for affection
That keeps us coming back into this place
A strategy that need not be employed
It will not fill the void
The voice that whispers softly
The reason for the soul
When God’s love shines from deep within
Forever you’ll be whole
The earthly things so easily destroyed
Creator of the void
