Nowhere

I'm going nowhere And you're coming with me What always was will never be But what is now we can't ignore And someday soon will be nevermore When we were we weren't really Present only surrealy I'm going nowhere And you're coming with me Best accept it you can't escape Your final destiny and certain fate In the end there is no more And you and I will be for sure Nowhere never evermore But nowhere isn't really there So when we get there we won't really care

Thank you for (hopefully) enjoying the poem. Apologies for the annoyance. Really thank you for reminding me of the word paradox. I love paradox. The Universe seems full of them. Great fun looking for them and playing with the poetry. I seem to have lost track of the word until you reminded me. Really, thank you! H

A clever, inventive and pleasant to read write that deeply conveys a message that should resonate in every human...bare bones truth that most will reject or will puzzle over.......good work.

Leo, Thank you for the kind words. I am thrilled that someone got it. I can understand the puzzlement. I do believe the rejection may be fear.
