Poetry: Nothing

by Nadia Shirley

Created on: November 19, 2009

Again and again

I am forced to surrender

Again and again

I am forced to the border

Again and again

I am asked to give


I have nothing else to give

Empty as empty can be

Let me go


I can't go any further than this

I am sitting at this corner

Surrendering to my fate


I look around

Trying to plant my feet firm on the ground

I'm losing all the sound

Walking along to rebound


Let me go
