Do You

Do you?

Do you feel empty, unsatisfied, alone?
Did you lose your passion?
Perhaps it never existed?
What are you going to do with your life?
Do you want to waste it away?
Or are just confused?
Unable to find direction, do you just wander?
Or find a map and compass?
But what use are those for you when you don't know where you want to go?
Perhaps wandering is good.
Perhaps it teaches well.
For it takes you to places that a path would miss.
Places like Heaven and Hell.
And what successful soul has not visited both?
