Meaning in an indifferent world

Cover of Meaning in an indifferent world

“I am filled with a desire for clarity and meaning within a world and condition that offers neither”
Albert Camus.
Meaning in an indifferent world
: This world is shallow
Rich only in distractions
In search of clarity
But found only obscurity,
In search of meaning
This reality offers none
Construct one for myself
To keep my sanity,
Beware of this illusion
Look beyond the superficial
A master of pleasure
Only to distract you,
Lead you down voidness
Devour away your soul
Bombard you with mediocrity
Steal your dreams away,
Do not ever compromise
Run with your desire
Overcome this soulless world
Be free in meaning.
