The Company of Nothing

The Company of Nothing

I'm walking in a field

nothingness all around

I think of what life used to mean

nothing that wouldn't bring a frown

all the people that used to surround me

and what they bought

all that pain and anguish that only put me down

and now I think as I walk alone

was it worth it?

what they did?

and I think

walking in this field of nothingness

is it that this nothingness

is all the company I need?

Lot of emotion in the piece. I'm sorry you feel this alone. I can relate with you, and I'm here if you ever wanna talk. Great write!

thanks. and same goes for you. People may not help me much but i always help other people.

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
