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! September 17, 2015
