Verse: Nothing

We spent tears
on stars
and nothing

we called on oracles
for hours
and nothing

we contemplated
the naked ceilings
and nothing

we wore ourselves
out on our sleeves
and nothing

we let the day
intrude upon us
and nothing

we thrash in sheets
with no light available
and nothing

we made an itinerary
of our motives
and nothing

we listened to
our echoes serenade us
and nothing

we wandered wild
with wanton wonder
and nothing

we loved
for a while
and nothing

we exchanged
our lies for truth
and nothing

we awoke to
the possibility of dreams
and nothing

we knew
the consequences
and nothing

after all
that we are only now beginning
to appreciate the end

it's nothing
to be afraid of
nothing at all
