Cannot Give
Some value money,
Some value time,
Some value success,
Some just want to feel fine.
Some give their all,
Some give only half,
Some give none,
Some give more than they have.
Always on the run, we aim and strive,
Running on empty, yet we never arrive.
But what is our goal?
What leads to fulfillment?
Giving the world
One hundred percent?
We lose ourselves trying to gain,
And then we're lost, but who's to blame?
Giving our all in search of bliss,
Is success found in emptiness?
You deserve balance,
It's your life to live.
So oh, please remember,
Emptiness cannot give.
