Into the nothing

Into the nothing

The nothing,

Everything is there

One's lost love,

Or a tragic pair.

You find yourself

Wanting to go there

If the pain of today

Is too hard to bear.

The nothing

means everything to us,

the death of a loved thing

or just a fleeting stare,

we fight to stay away

but are always drawn near

because we know 

the reason we fight

to stay alive

can be found there.
