What is my soul?
Is it the piece of self fulfilled with love and meaning?
Not for all.
The soul,
the body,
the head
Is empty.
You can fill me with a need for a purpose,
you can fill me with parts of yourself,
you can fill me with ideas of religion and facts and opinions,
But you cannot fill the gaping hole that is emptiness.
Because everything is temporary
except for my emptiness.
The stomach,
the heart,
the eyes,
are empty.
You can fill me with food,
you can fill me with false conceptions of love,
you can fill me with sadness and happiness,
But you can not fill the gaping hole that is emptiness.
Because everything is temporary
except for my emptiness.
Its huge jaw swallows me whole and I fall
And I fall.
When will I escape this eternal hole of nothing?
