Nothing

Nothing I ever had, 
Nothing I can lose.
Nothing is a strong word.
I know! Because I feel nothing.

Complains and expectations,
Did no good. 
"My happiness?" A feeling due.
I would ask
Long awaiting my turn, 
Standing in a queue.

This life,
I never got to choose.
Uncertain situations, with me,
Did share its views!

A journey from- To try and tried!
A several times, over and over again!
I only found myself with Nothing!
An effort with no gain!

Emotions ran dry,
And now eyes refuse to cry.
A frolic soul once 
Is today,
Just living by!

But as they say! 
'Nothing' last forever.
May be tomorrow will be different,
A hope that today, I feel I lack.
So taking some time off,
And a step back,
I sink in this feeling and embrace-
'Nothing'.
