I have an enormous sea shell collection, I keep it scattered on beaches across the world.


Nothing was never truly nothing
It saddens me to say
It was always touched by something
And so could never stay

Nothing is a concept
To comfort the saddest minds
An answer that ends all onsets
Of woes upon mankind

But nothing never was and so
I cannot mourn its loss
For something makes nothing forgo
Its identity the cost

For nothing touches something
Therefore nothing is made
To something, no more nothing
and so the world was made

This one made a couple brains in my creative writing class melt, implode and explode all at once. If it makes sense to you, congratulations. Great minds think alike. If you like this, you may also like "Anyone Lived in a Pretty How Town" by E.E. Cummings.
