Musing #52 - "Seven Billion Smiles"

 Empty Space

There's an empty space inside me

a longing I've tried to kill.

I thought if I had everything

The emptiness would be filled.

And though I've checked off that list

I'm still not satisfied.

The picture-perfect dream world

Is nothing but a lie.

Our history's terrible story

is of men searching desperately to find

Something other than their Maker

that fulfils them, though they're blind.

But now I have the answer,

and now I've closed my case.

I've found the one Existence 

Who can fill my empty space.

   The above poem was written by a special friend of mine who goes under the pen name of "Emma Starr." 
   Emma is a very a talented young lady who truly has a gift for poetry and art, and she has recently started a blog of her own. She plans to fill this blog up with doodles, poems, book reviews, and other fun stuff. 

   You'll find the link to her blog below, so go on over and leave her an encouraging comment! :-)
