Nothing

I am Nothing and that is all I will ever be,

for a better way of living has never been taught to me.

I know nothing and that is all I will ever know,

for the voices and sounds around me are always much too low.

It's the empty kiss of nothingness what bids me goodnight:

I try to make the days go by

and end up wasting my life

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
