I Mean Nothing Poem by GICANIRO Gicaniro

I long to be heard
No, not to be heard
I meant to be understood
Well no, not to be understood
I meant to be felt
I long to bond with the world around me
It seems I can't live as a separate piece
Because then I am not at peace
See… I am meant to be a part of the whole
And alone, by myself, as an individual
I mean nothing, I feel nothing
Yes, nothing, nothing until I am reattached to the whole
To you, to everything
Nothing, until it's no longer me but us
Until it's no longer mine but ours
Until it's no longer here, but everywhere
I mean nothing
Alone, by myself, as an individual
I feel nothing.
