Void

Wanting More

By Kari HammondPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

The crave... of wanting more

The want of something more in life

When at the end of the day

You still feel a little empty

You can't help but ask is something wrong with me

Working really hard to make money

Buying things that bring you happiness

But at the end of the day

There's still the void

The void and craving of wanting something more

Looking at your phone to message friends...

Yet they all seem too busy

And the void seems to just get bigger

Craving to have someone to talk too

Craving someone too seem interested in you...

As much as you seem interested in them

When you try so hard to make a connection

And it all seems to fall short

Feeling like you are not worth the time

Feeling like you are just second best

Everything only feeding the void...

You try so hard for everything you do

Wishing the void would just go away

That you could just be happy

With the things you already have

But, yet, the void is still there...
