Driven

Must have it

Can’t find it

Try this or

Try that

This brought pleasure

That brought pain

But either way

I’m empty again

This brought comfort

That brought sorrow

Where am I going

I’ll know tomorrow

This brought laughter

That brought tears

The emptiness hurts

Magnifies my fears

This brought joy

That brought misery

I’m driven to fill

The void in me

This numbed the pain

That made me forget

Then tomorrow comes

The void with me yet

And now at last

I found what works

Unconditional love

Heals all hurt
