Emptiness

Emptiness can easily overcome us at anytime.
We must be willing to open our hearts and souls.
So stop the flow of that overpowering river.
It was meant to send us spiraling out of control.

We must be willing to open our hearts and soul.
Therefore, never leaving vacant, the heart.
It was meant to send us spiraling out of control.
Leaving us unfulfilled, as if never being a part.

Therefore, never leaving vacant the heart,
We can assume it is filled with love and desire.
Leaving us unfulfilled, as if never being a part;
This gives us the emptiness, devoid of fire.

We can assume it is filled with love and desire,
So stop the flow of that overpowering river.
This gives us the emptiness, devoid of fire.
Emptiness can easily overcome us at anytime.
