empty

empty
our days
an endless round it seems at times
doing it all over and over again,
so absurd,
so much to do that is worthless,
so many items desired that are useless.
empty time
cloying in its seeming unending nothingness,
yet all too conscious of the void
the inner bleakness without bottom or ending,
seeking to escape,
yet death is not the answer
for perhaps
it is not the end,
not always a comforting thought
when weighed down by weariness
and the simple desire
to cease.
Yet this passes,
life is good,
existence our valued gift
I just take it for granted I think,
like a spoiled child,
lacking understanding of what really is,
for life once gone,
it is gone.

I'm glad it passes. I'm also glad the emptiness is there, for I believe it points to the only One who can truly fill the void.

Yes I agree, thanks.
