I am searching to fill a void,
For something is not right,
Has a piece of my heart been destroyed?
Why do I cry at night?
I cannot understand why we feel,
And why we must feel pain,
Why the losses in life are so real,
Often there is no gain.
How can there be a reason for all,
When there is such heartache,
Why is it many people must fall,
To learn from a mistake.
It is thought that he is all knowing,
Why does he deal such cards,
Some of us will perhaps lose feeling,
For life is just too hard.
Some of us just cannot deal as well,
We cannot comprehend,
And many of us can never tell,
Just when to be a friend.
How can I trust at all in my life,
Based on all that I've known,
It is true it is not all strife,
Partly what I've been shown.
I feel and emptiness in my heart,
I fear what I might find,
I wonder if this is just the start,
In discovering my mind.
