Bored

I’m bored...
With each passing day...

My own challenges are too easy...
For I have already...
Achieved them...
Yet my dreams...
Remain allusive...

For I do not know...
What my dreams are...
But they are not this...

They are not just an escape...
They are not just a vision...
They are more...

Yet I am a simple man...
With allusions of grander things...
That I achieved is never enough...
For there is always something better...
But for now...
I know...
There is something missing...

There is a void...
And nothing logical...
So far...
Has filled it...

And it is probably love...
And that is true...
Then I will be searching forever...
For I am not looking for that...
For I am too logical...
And am searching for something...
A little more long term...
Yet I am willing to give...
My love away...
As I have done before.

Steve, I often reach this point, and this is when I know my soul is needing something new - a class, a dance, a hobby, a person, a new friend, something. and so I sign up, bob around, and entertain myself in crazy ways until I settle down and am happy. I wish the best for you.
