Less Be More

Perhaps I will like so much more
From nothing even to begin with
Of hate and of things to adore
With nothing and everything to believe

Did I want something?
Have I not everything to begin along?
What exactly does nothing mean?
What exactly is everything then to be set upon?

Can I be, am I even believable?
With the many ideas from a troubled mind
A Joel to fathom if conceivable
If a nobody can be everything you need sometime

Something more do you not need?
So much more to feel so incomplete
Silent cries echoing a never to plead
Are we all not guilty never to admit?

Would you like to have so much more?
With nothing and everything to believe
That of hate and of things to adore
When everything is nothing to begin with
