Void

VOID - 1 FEB 2018
 
Void, why are you looking at me as if I don’t exist?!
I’m just as real as you, you know.
So you think you’ve got something on me –
Haunting me, following me, annoying me?
 
Still there? Staring into my soul –
You have no right to go there!
It’s my place – you know that.
And we’ve had this conversation before!
 
You say there’s plenty of room for me…and you.
But don’t you get it? I don’t want to be close to you.
Void, take a walk! And leave me alone.
 
Actually, I’ve noticed that you’re getting bigger – very sneaky!
Just stop bugging me and stop taking over my place.
 
(I need something to get rid of Void – to squeeze him out. Let’s think…
Ah, yes – let’s fill up my space with lots of good, irresistible things -
Parties, holidays, food, wine, gossip, music, hobbies, work!
Yes! That’s the solution.)
 
(Oh, no! it isn’t – I’ve done all that before and look where it’s got me? 
Here, with more of Void!
Something must be out there – something new…for me?)
 
You out there - have you got the answer? 
I’m searching really hard for a solution.
And not a quick fix! 
Help me, please, because I feel so overwhelmed by Void –
In fact, it’s getting seriously difficult and it’s killing me.
 
Say that again - a bit louder!
 
J E S U S.  Am I hearing you right?
 
J E S U S – it means, ‘God saves’?
 
He’ll help me and get rid of Void? 
Just say His name and ask Him to help – that simple?
Why didn’t you tell me before?! You did?
Well, now you’ve got my attention because I’ve hit a real low.
I’ll call Him. What? He’s in my space already?
Amazing. How? Always been there? Never…
What? That I preferred Void? Never!
 
Jesus – please answer me! 
Help me to get rid of Void because he’s trying to consume me: 
he wants my space - my place; he’s taking me over, full time.
 
Thank you. 
Oh…and sorry for not listening. You’re going to be my saviour, Saviour
