Soul Searching Poem by Kresta Farr

Searching - searching for the words to say, but, they're not there. Instead a silence, a monotony of nothingness as the words i long for escape me.
Him - I see him every where - always busy - he doesn't notice the silence.
Her - I see her too, sometimes busy, other times caught in her own thoughts - she doesn't notice my silence - only her own.
Lost - the souls trying to find each other, but their quest is failing - still they go on looking, trying hard to find happiness.
The end result will be the same for all; The struggle that they face every day will either eat them up until they gradually lose their minds, lost in the craziness forever they will never rest.
Or... they will be strong and learn to survive the nothingness; They can defeat it.
Him - He is the rock - the do-er he will succeed.
Her - She is the river - the dabbler, she could fall either way depending on which way the waves are falling in the ocean of life.
Me - I will go on searching, the nothingness inside me will eat me and i will disappear into the craziness for eternity. The smile will still be outside so they don't see.
The lost souls will once again find true happiness together
