The Theory of Nothingness

Nothing

Is Nothing

It will always be

nothing

Nothing isn't anything

Anyone

Anywhere

Nothing is empty

Nothing does not contain anything

Because it's nothing

Nothing

Is nothing

And will always be nothing

Nothing is an empty sky

Nothing is a clear wall

Nothing is a blank canvas

Nothing is what your doing when your bored

Nothing is what's said when you fall on the floor

and your mama hears a loud thump in her room and asks you

"What was that" (nothing)

Nothing is the response you give to your teacher

when they see you chewing something and ask

"What's that in your mouth" (nothing)

Nothing isn't air

And it doesn't take up space

Nothing is nothing

And it will always be nothing

Nothing isn't a thing

A person

Or an object

Nothing isn't a thought

A feeling

Or a phase

Nothing is just...

Nothing

It will stay nothingness

For eternity

Nothing will never be something

Because it will always be nothing.
