Nothing

I fear nothing
 

Not as in I am fearless,

but as in 

I fear it

It’s truly incomprehensible,

it can’t be imagined,

and we’re stuck with the thought of 

thinking about nothing
 

No space in the world contains nothing

Even the blank space we can’t see

is filled with chemicals and particles

So it may be silly

but I fear the sight of nothing because

it doesn’t exist

The universe has no defined end,

 so what comes after it?


 

Maybe after we die, there's

nothing

Maybe that’s what I fear

I’ll never be sure 

because I am right here

Even so, we are just matter, 

never can be destroyed

Even if our planet 

goes to shambles,

we’ll still matter

Maybe someday I’ll be a star

watching over

Maybe someday we will rearrange

into something better

Maybe those we lost

turned into the flowers

in the front yards that bloom

every spring

Maybe I just have to accept

the nonexistence 

of nothing

There’s nothing for me to fear if

  • Death and Taxes

    It‘s said there’s only

    two things

    certain in our lives

    death

    and

    taxes

    How can we be certain of death

    until the day we are dead?

    How do we know that we’ll die

    if we are not dead yet?

  • 11:11

    It’s alright

    It’s fine

    It’s 11:11

    the luckiest minute

    of my life

    So don’t waste it

    Hold on for just a minute

    and remind

    yourself you are

    alright

  • Spray-Tanned

    Why did you have to hurt us?

    Again?

    Again?

    ‘Cause when I was young

    there was a chance

    a chance

    to be free

    a chance to see a woman be

    something new and

    different
