Nothing
Nothing
Nothing comes out of nothing
We do reach a state of nothingness
Just let things be as they are
If still something happens
Let it be and do nothing. It is nothing!
A lifetime of pain for suffering with the familiar
Sleepless nights and service in every gesture
Your loving deeds will be forgotten
Man strive to live your little life.
Nightingale's lamps are now nothing!
Your selflessness to be scoffed a milestone away
Scarlet burning cheeks at public embarrassment
William Tell's Apple place on their image
Shoot that admiration and cipher
Them out of your blessed hearts. They were nothing!
Building houses and wealth amassed
Rights usurped or stolen by times
Rumours of the jealous with smiles garnished
Momentarily sunk you rise up to a mountain
Stronger strides to reach the crest. Life's about nothing!
