How Should I Fill This Invisible Hole Inside Of Me? Poem by Sarah Sisson

First, it's all in my head.
I must acknowledge that fact.

That if I whence and if I falter
it is because I am not unique.

I must also accept that there
are things that have happened to

me that make me who I am and
somewhere, in here, I developed a hole.

How large? I do not know anymore
because it has repaired....filled with

the sunlight of the spirit. The joy of
living a sane life, However, I know

that holes still exist in the vast universe
of my mind...I fill them with toxic waste

of the world...lust...sloth, and other sins.
There are promises out there...promises

of the fulfillment life. But I must hold my
head up and absorb the spirit...

....that so wants to comfort and heal these wounds.
