Of All Things, I Only Miss You Poem by Mllat Mohammed

Of All Things, I Only Miss You

Of all things, I only miss you,
yet of all things, you only forget me—
yes, you forget me,
leaving me as the loneliest soul in this universe.
—
At this moment, I am a creature of nothingness,
while you are everything, possessing all,
except me.
