Nothing

December 5, 2011
By Anonymous

There's just nothing left.

My heart has bled from every corner
telling you how I am her.
I’ve given every bit possible.
My veins are cold, yet it’s unstoppable.

Now there’s nothing left.

Every night I’ve cried an ocean
filled with creatures of loving notions.
I’ve tried to stop and control my breathing,
but I jerk and keep on grieving.

Now there’s nothing left.

I’ve no more blood, my heart is drained.
I’ve no more tears, my eyes have dried.
No longer do I shake when I grieve.
No longer do I long for your love.

There’s just nothing left.

Favorite Quote:
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn&#039;t serve the world. There&#039;s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&#039;t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It&#039;s not just in some of us, it&#039;s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.<br /> -Marianne Williamson
