It lurks
It haunts
Always searching
Wandering aimlessly looking for answers
Wanting something nameless
Constant agony of restlessness
Does it ever end?
This feeling of emptiness
No material things seem to fulfill
Money, ambition, jobs and success
It doesn't bring satisfaction
This anger of dissatisfaction
Seems to be the only emotion
That is pa**ion other than indifference
Indifference of having meaningless materials and success
That everyone seems to think is the answer
These things only satisfy the ego
A momentary satisfaction
I may try in vain and buy happiness
What then after the exhilaration subsides?
Once alone, I will be reminded
Of this emptiness
This thirst to fill the void
Wanting constant happiness
Not just the feeling of joy
But of peace and contentment
I need to know what else is out there
What quest is in stored for me?
How deep must I search?
Am I looking too hard?
Not knowing of what each day will bring
Isn't that an adventure in itself?
The adventure of life
Meeting different people
Going to different places
Learning new cultures
Gaining knowledge
Will this fill the void?
