Filling the Void

I woke up this morning to start a new life
I looked inside myself to find nothing but emptiness
Where had I gone
You had taken me with you when you walked out that door
I was no longer fulfilled
How could I fill the void?
Would someone else’s love do?
Never. No one can replace what we had.
Will I ever again be overflowing?
Not without you!
Then I lie back down to think
I cannot remain empty forever
I must conquer this never-ending desolate canyon
Shall I fill it with hate?
Hate will not do.
It will only consume me in the wrong way.
I must fill it with something.
Time, time is the only thing that can fill it.
I stand back up to face the day
Wishing that time would pass more quickly
Each morning I wake up and look inside.
The void is filling slowly.
Someday I will again be happy
Someday I will again be full
