you

look into your soul
find nothing
empty
a stone statue of solace
think
push through the fog
this should be easy
you should try harder

i used to be so hopeful
so ambitious
i was a bright child
bright future
inevitable success
somewhere along
this 
time worn trail

i know
i'm rooted
an insignificant dot
a speck in the timeline 
of the cosmos

but the pain i feel
transcends reality
there has to be a plan
fate

if no one will
