Nothing To Lose

When you've got nothing.. You've got nothing to lose. No possessions or ties, just an empty expanse.. No love to hold onto, just a fleeting glance. When you've got nothing.. You've got nothing to choose. No options or paths, just a vast emptiness.. No dreams to pursue, just a state of restlessness. When you've got nothing.. You've got nothing to win. No victories or triumphs, just endless defeat.. No hope to cling to, just a heart that's in retreat. When you've got nothing.. You've got nothing to blame. No excuses or reasons, just a void of regret.. No one to hold accountable, just yourself to forget. When you've got nothing.. You've got nothing to fear. No expectations or hopes, just a numbness within.. No pain to endure, just a soul stripped thin. And when you've got nothing.. You've got everything to gain. No expectations, no regrets, just the passing of time.. A world to embrace, and the rhythm of rhyme.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
