Inspired by Nothing (Everything)

When they looked upon the body they saw nothing.
When they looked upon the face they saw nothing.
When thoughts were searched in fervent whirlwind,
Nothing was found.
Creation was searched,
Nothing shifted like invisible sands bereft of origin strewn across the All…
Nothing leaped from the brink of Epiphany,
While an immortal bell humbly upheld nothing.
All they could feel and see was the nothing,
When they loved the nothing they lived for nothing,
When they lived for the nothing they died for nothing…
When they loved, lived, and died for nothing,
When every battle fought for nothing was won,
Nothing became everything.
When the nothing became everything,
They became everything.
Creation realized each flowers’ unfurling glory,
And became everything.
Love…God imbued creation,
Leaving nothing as everything.

Yes...nothing became everything in the end.
And remains everything to this moment in
time.. Well said..

The nothing became everything
When god imbued creation with Love and Fear
It all means nothing
For nothing was seen in the body
And nothing was seen in the face
That bared any semblance to either one.

God imbued creation with Love and Fear.
From each extreme comes a solemn Armageddon.
Either way, sweet oblivion.
Each time dying,
blood fills the empty
spaces left behind.
This constant
pummeling of every
emotion I hold
Dear.

I enjoyed this little bit of nothing
and everything you wrote~
