You say void, like its a bad thing
Calling out into darkness
two glowing colorful birds appear
they speak tonal wisdom
and grow closer and larger until you’re almost inside them
they announce the arrival of
The Devourer
You want life the way you like it
and you get depressed when you see
that it may not work out the way you planned
Its probably for the best
your childish ideas of love
were laughable at best
People spend 98% percent of their lives alone
even when they’re with people
in fact being with other people
oftentimes make the loneliness
all the more acute
Something is missing
perhaps you’re right
for there are clues that point
to a missing person
but its funny, these mysteries
in the end
the missing person
is always yourself
