My Own Nothing


So many times I wept

Crying out for something

That was never even there.

What will false fate bring?


Holding onto wisps of nothing

A love that dissipates before it comes

Cold and broken hearted, trembling

Reaching out for shadows.


A forgotten hope dwells

Hidden beneath my own reality

Godless, loveless emptiness..

My own nothing.
