Does anybody else know the feeling of, nothing

I can’t even explain it, because it’s nothing

Just the feeling of nothing really matters

The true meaning of life

Is it actually anything?

Are we just basically living beings who have just become smarter and also dumber at the same time

We have built and categorised our beliefs, our religion, our people, our world and our system. Just for us to believe in and fight for something, so it makes our life worth living. For us to live for something.

We created nothing into something,

So is the something really anything then if we ourselves created it,

We made it up, we made what is, is.

Everything is nothing.

We live our days in the world our fellow humans created

Our bad ways and good ways made today how it is,

They created the hate in this world and they created the love in this world.

We create what we want,

We make nothing into something

We make something into anything

We create the world we live in,

And yet we all feel the nothing

Nothing I do will help

Nothing I do will matter

Nothing I do will make a difference.

If they can create hate and bad ways of the human kind, out of nothing

You can create love from nothing, you can create a new way from nothing,

from having nothing you can create anything you want.

But on the worst days, I feel nothing.
