Everything Is Nothing To Me Poem by Linda Marie Van Tassell

Everything is nothing to me.
I am forever standing still.
I loved, but it was not to be.
Now I no longer have the will.

I hold my breath and close my eyes.
Everything is nothing to me.
The heart beats on but slowly dies
like a river en route to sea.

I always thought that love was free,
but I have been robbed of all gold.
Everything is nothing to me.
It's all too tarnished to be sold.

I have less than nothing to give
so I give nothing but this plea.
I want no more this life to live.
Everything is nothing to me.
