odd shaped hole


You bring me to life.

I light up a room when I enter. I inspire, strengthen and encourage. I move the earth to everyone’s delight. But somehow, it means nothing to me now.

You justify my existence.

When I wake up, there’s an odd shaped hole in my heart. When I go to sleep I drown my pillow in tears as I realise… the hole is a little bigger now.

I become irrelevant without you.

As the sun sets my soul slips away. The world fades behind my tears. One simple thought lingers in my head now.

Where are you?

  2. louis, this is so warm and tender -- goosebumps and tears -- i hope you find the odd shape, or maybe it needs to find you.

    thank you,

  3. The yearning of our soul sends us on a quest to "fill" that hole. Its how we grow spiritually and become closer to God.
