NOTHING NADA NULL
Car gone, home gone,
Job gone, reputation gone
LOVE brought me to nothing
Feelings in check, mouth muzzled
Actions slow and sure
LOVE brought me nada
Spiritual warfare raging
Attacks constant, unknown secured
LOVE brought me...null
In the losing, I gained
Intangible gifts
Experienced, but not gauged
In the losing, I learned
Holding until safe
Released, but not tracked
In the losing, I expanded
Occupying territory
Acknowledged, but not possessed
...balance in operation
