there is a place in the heart that will never be filled a space and even during the best moments and the greatest times times we will know it we will know it more than ever there is a place in the heart that will never be filled and we will wait and wait in that space.

The speaker describes an enduring inner absence—an emotional “space” that persists even in periods of happiness. The repetition (“we will know it… we will wait and wait”) suggests that this lack is not a temporary sadness but a structural feature of human longing: desire outlasts satisfaction, and joy can sharpen awareness of what is missing. Read in a Bukowskian key, it also resonates with themes of loneliness, addiction to intensity, and the sense that love or success cannot fully repair earlier wounds. The quote’s power lies in its plain diction and insistence that waiting becomes a way of life, not a phase.
