Nothing Left Poem by Theresa Goertz

i feel like i have nothing left
nothing left to love
nothing left to hold
nothing left to keep me from slipping from a world
that's so dark and depressing
that's slowly killing itself
to get away from the creatures it's created.
i'm like the earth
ever so slowly dying
until there's nothing left
nothing but darkness
nothing but coldness
nothing but death at every turn
i have nothing to hold on to
everyone i love
everyone i know
they're all slowly
toturiously slipping away
killing me bit by bit
until i won't be anything no more
a soulless
heartless
feelingless
empty shell
i won't feel pain
i won't feel happiness
i won't feel fear
i won't feel at all
for i've nothing left to hold me down
nothing left to keep me from floating away on the breeze
nothing left to keep me from drowning in my own
feelingless pit
nothing
