Nothing

hanging on to nothing
like clouds in the sky 
music in the air 
tears of goodbye
holding on to nothing
 like fear on a dare 
rocks at the bottom
 light on a glare
the truth is unspoken
Let sleeping dogs lie
where is your empathy 
when leaving one to die
cast doubt like stones
Remain sure of your choices
Don't loose your way
While finding your voice
When everything is gone
Nothing will remain
Tempting and trying
Yet still the same
