Void Poem by Jay P Narain

What is void,
One that can not be filled,
Why it cant be filled,
There is nothing in the world to fill it with.

Why my heart has become a void,
There is silence, no cheers, no joys,
The love seems hard to get,
There is always some price to be paid.

How do i fill up the void,
With laughter and love of my loved ones,
With infrequent shallow chatter of my friends,
With the sweet whispers from the mirage of love.

Unfulfilled expectations bring pain,
Illusion of something missing torments the brain,
Channeling thoughts improperly havocs the feelings,
The darkness of void looks for the beacon of hope.
