The Nothing

December 16, 2013

For you are the nothing–

the shadow that blended into the dark,

the voice that faded in the crowd.

 

For you are the nothing–

The ideas unsaid,

The questions unanswered.

 

For you are the nothing–

The shy and the meek,

The silent, and the dead.

 

For you are the nothing–

For you are the nothing–

Calm  and silent,

all the light that seems to be one

 

For you are the nothing–

The ungraspable tomorrow

Forever planning, Forever knowing.

 

For you are the nothing–

simply one of many

always there, but unseen

 

For you are the nothing–
