Void



when you don't know
what you want
what will you do
rather not do?

what is this void
in my soul ?
its place in my
enchanted skies?
has it made the
distance infinite?
does it pride
in this journey endless?

Will I conquer
this numbness I feel ?
or will I let it
dictate my destiny?

I dont know
this way back,
the map to home ,
long lost...

yet I heard
that voice,
across my fears
"you will make it",
and I know,
That's I.

I was heartened to hear the optimism at the end of the poem, in the face of what seemed like despair. Very delicate.

Many well-posed questions here, I can empathise.

This started out very somber, but looks up in the end - a lovely sentiment and well-expressed emotion.
