Devour

Weary and wanting from the ache inside

No emotion at any depth I try to hide

A hollow pit waiting for something to burn

You can fill up the spaces but there’s always a way out

Down through the tunnel and out to be more

Th urge once again rises and the search continues

No absolute but a constant hope to be fulfilled

Something sufficient

Providing contentment

Would the pursuit transform into another

I beg for a new world

Or perhaps a new heart

No matter how hard I try

Trying is the opposite of actuality

A veil over reality by our thoughts and layers of excuses to manifest

In the end there is nothing and in the beginning there was nothing

The gap that leads into infinity

An understanding of a black hole empathically

Maybe it really does hold a universe

How natural is it to be empty and yet create boundaries of space and time

We perceive the outside but in essence is it truly empty

Or is it a hole even?

Perhaps we perceive a sphere but in higher dimensions we’d see it as what we understand to be a tunnel

Where would it take us

I think it will only take us to another land where we translate the hunger into a new form

The multiverse is just another reason to keep searching after we’ve only found half the answers in this one

It seems we never even finish what we start

Because we fear the end

We’ve made it fatal in our minds

When our soul knows nothing may be permanent here

There is a universe that came before all of this

where we truly exist

And know this is a game that we’ve played for eons

To entertain ourselves

To evolve as the divine always has

Transcending labels because it moves regardless of our insignificant judgements

Will the static stagnation into a dynamic situation

Simultaneous reaction

Awake while in a dream

Looking for an opening and the maze will always grow

Let it go
