Nothing to Offer I've nothing to offer, no love anymore Perhaps it is there, but disguised as before. I carry no dictionary in mind But trust built my pages, those one can find Beginning to brown, edges bent and misused As I turned them in searches, palmed them confused. I've nothing to offer, I've emptied the till Perhaps it's for better, this loss of my will. Hey Dad if your watching, I've failed me again Not once, but it's twice now, it's hard to sustain. Advice from all over comes weighing me down. Nothing I offer, gives strength, holds no ground. This refrain of life, I keep bumping into Is bruising my ego, 'til all I can do Is crawl into nowhere, with nothing inside Where wrapped in my empty, I wait and I hide. Wondering, I, what's my worth, what's my gift What offering's there, as in pages I sift And find they were written, invisible the ink Empty of words, into thought, I try, sink. Until helpless I'm feeling, my life now undone Unwound, and stripped, I am feeling " no one". And I can't lift me up, I am broken, torn pieced I am puzzled today, in these feelings released. I've nothing to offer, that one piece is lost. I have searched, I have spent, if you knew what it cost You would lay me to rest, not toyed with me then Thrown away with the broken, incompleted again. Life's tested me much, and I failed, it is true There's no love anymore, I have lost hope for two. "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

How very sad...It's never nice to feel this way..in such despair...all I know is that there is usually light on the otherside, sometime... hugs  KAll obscurity starts with a danger: |

No one has nothing to offer absolutely NO ONE! We all have a little something special within, sure, we may stumble along the way, we all make mistakes, but I do not believe for one second you have nothing special in you. Your poetry is something special for a start, and that shows your sensitivity as well. Two things already! I know you were probably just down when you wrote this, but I simply refuse to believe there is nothing in you or anyone else for that matter!! *hugs* Isis *War produces one thing - Cemetaries.

This is very sad.. I can feel the desperation in this piece. It's very nicely portrayed.. Good job. --Marie subconsciously, i think i can eat so much to make my stomach hurt, instead of my heart. |

Wynter, Is crawl into nowhere, with nothing inside Where wrapped in my empty, I wait and I hide. These are my absolute favourite lines of all times, because I can so relate to them. I'm sorry you are going through a bad time, but remember bad times come to pass they don't come to stay. *HuGS* write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life.

I agree with Kenthry and that line being my favorite too. Great write, open and full of emotion. Keep writing. With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. |

Hey Irish one..I am sort of disappointed today and am thinking about whether it is time to get off here or not...some times I think I shouldn't get out of bed huggzzzz M "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |
