Everything

Since there ever was such a thing as you and I, I never believed that there would be nothing left. Nothing. The complete and absolute abscence of any emotion one could muster. I remember bookmarking in my head the milestones we completed. First to completely trust. First to unconditionally devote myself too. First to Love. First heartbreak. Thinking of the sweet aroma that was our love, is even easier forgotten. Remebering the impending sense of doom created by the pile of lies you enjoyed stacking as high as my heart would allow, falls away as if it never happened. Instantaneous throbbing of my heart caused by the painful strain you burdened my emotional cavity with, remedied as easily as one would swat away a fly. The realization that there is nothing left. Nothing. In the complete and absolute abscence of any emotion one could muster.. I find something. Everything.

o but how that nothing turns to something cause that something was once your everything, and that everything took you away till it striped you of nothing to say. I like what you wrote here, pretty sure all ans many know the feeling, but to each are own, feelings felt, good poem
