It makes sense to me

We were made
of nothing

I still feel that when,
it’s dark

The best things
always
come from nowhere

Life’s a gift
time couldn’t avoid

I was born a
silent
hymn

Scratching
on the glass

I am just another
blade

Hidden
in
the,
swaying
grass

Water me with
want
sufficient

Dam
the broke and pour

Greed is feeding
on
the honest

Eating, like a
hoard

All the space inside
a zero

Is
for I to live

That is all that’s left
for me
to you,
I can forgive

That and all the
powder
of my
paper,
and my
bones

My sign is insignificant

Faulting,
on alone

Eve was torn of Adam’s
fib

Mourning
is a bye

The hippo is not
critical

Certainty
is nigh

Faith is just a curse we
carry
that
we understand

Only things that I
behold

Are held
within my hands

I wish I never
recognized

That lie
was in belief

All the graves of stolen
lives

Are trapped
within our grief

You have so many lines that will be remembered forever, such as . . .

Greed is feeding

the honest
