Nothing Nothing Poem by Donald R Wolff JR

Nothing, nothing- Is really something
You don't shout out at 'one' who cares
Being mindless to somebody
Is nothing more than no one there

Promise nothing when you wish to love me
Don't just look with that blank stare
Only love me, 'so' my lovely
Love me into deep despair

Make believe a faithful journey
Take my heart without a prayer
Tell me always lies, of loving
Take your fill then leave me here

Time is but a lonely moment
Dried in sand foreseeing love denied
Broken is a waiting heartache
Better than a loveless life
