none
 


this morning
 


first love
 


the look
 


thoughts of nothingness
 


the box
 


struck
 


possession
 


salvation

 

 

    

THOUGHTS OF NOTHINGNESS

The mind is blank.
    Or so it seems.
Thoughts of nothingness control my mind.
    Nothingness...
    Nothingness...
Which is something.
    Barely.

Flying high are my thoughts of love...
    Of kindness...
    Of self-respect...
    Of hope.
All out of reach.
    The nothingness blocks my grasp.
    These things I want.
    I desire.
    I need.
        in order to survive.
