Nothingness, sweet Nothingness, Come wash over me Coarse through tired veins To once again bleed Nothing lasts forever But everything has an end Even if twice removed from it Can’t escape this downward trend I feel angry; I feel happy As I blister, burn, and peel I feel every opposing emotion If only I could just not feel It’s a most impossible desire To want the warmth of Nothing Oh how nice in the dark And the sweet comfort it brings To freeze all the senses And lie in Nothing’s embrace To take no more chances, And hide in the shadow of my face Give me a place with no more words No more feelings, and no more hurt |

Nothing lasts forever But everything has an end Even if twice removed from it Can’t escape this downward trend -------------- To freeze all the senses And lie in Nothing’s embrace To take no more chances, And hide in the shadow of my face Give me a place with no more words No more feelings, and no more hurt ----------------- only you could so poeticly move me with so much emptiness...but I am always grateful that you do feel, and live in a place with words...as it creates inspiration of these graceful words of yours... beautiful poem jer, stalking you always, your jm and you can say baby... baby can I hold you tonight maybe if told you the right words... at the right time, you'd be mine... baby can I hold you tonight... tracy chapman |

You really find the right words to describe an irrational desire to feel nothing. Terrific poem. |

I Love how you described Nothingness as warm and welcoming. Makes it so welcoming and something almost to yearn for. Wonderfully Done The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |

How I prayed like this so many times. It's nice to know you can put to pen. Joel. I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

that place is complete silent. The place with no hurt, pain or tears. And it's deafening. Your words are beautiful Kathleen |
