There's A Void

There's an emptiness inside me that i'm constantly trying to fill.
I've felt this way for years but all my attempts to remedy it hasn't yielded any positive results.
It seems like as the years go by, the more difficult it is for me to fill this void
So i'm always trying to keep my mind busy so that there's less chances of me worrying about it
But at the end of the day, the void is still there; and sometimes, it leads to sleepless nights

For some reason, this feeling has been pronounced lately
I feel like i'm at a standstill because i have no idea what to do anymore
And that feeling in itself frustrates me
And now it's becoming a struggle to fall asleep at night because i can feel it right there
And at that very moment, i can't run away from how i feel

  1. Whenever I have had this happen in my life (almost 44 years), it usually precedes a change of direction - job, views, life, etc. I had to take a step or two (or three or four) back and just listen to the quiet, ask myself what it is that I really want, want to do, where do I want to go and put them into action. Sometimes they lead nowheresville and that is okay. I keep trying.

    And then...

    There are those times when you just need to step back and wait and listen. That right there can be the toughest part.

    You do a wonderful job here! :)
