When the emptiness starts screaming,
When the mind seeks distractions.
When motion and voice are soothing,
Perhaps there is need for a re-think.

If the self cannot find peace with itself,
If it always seeks worldly confirmations.
Then perhaps it is time to introspect,
To shred the baggage of confabulations.

The lenses of opinions to be discarded,
The burden of memories brushed aside.
The voices and views be irrelevant,
Then, perhaps, the truth will emerge.
