After I flush my toilet the water returns to normal, but after awhile the water goes away, whats the cause?

See if this helps. If not, check the other two links I've put up for more information and possibly help.
The FAQ they've got up on Toiletology 101 says;
(..) if the water level in your bowl after flushing is now lower than it usually is then you have a problem that is more likely correctable.
In this case, the first thing to do is to carefully remove the lid from the tank and check that the little tube from the refill valve is directing water into the overflow pipe. This little tube sometimes gets knocked out of position while someone is making a repair in the tank. The tube should never drop down inside the pipe; it should be clamped to the top edge. This water refills the bowl during the flush.
A low water level in a bowl can also be caused if the toilet is not properly vented, or the vent is clogged. Poor venting can create a vacuum in the system when a toilet is flushed and too much water will be sucked out of the bowl.
A vent can become clogged with a bird's nest, body of a bird, etc. Also, in extremely cold climates an undersized vent can close up due to frost forming on the inside of the vent walls from warm humid air from washing machines, dishwashers, showers, etc. In addition, a vent can become clogged at the fixture connections with grease, soap scum, etc. A clogged vent requires running a snake down through the vent pipe from the roof. Climbing around on a roof is tricky and best left to professionals who have the proper equipment and experience.

Just went through this--the toilet had a very small crack/pinhole and was leaking in the cellar. Also was told to check the vent and the level of the bowl.
May be some problem with the siphon. Check this link:
