nothing at all by Melinda Sordinoi am blank inside
like a piece
of white paper
unmarked by
the toil of life
and untested
by the fires of hell
i am blank.
i am nothing,
faceless the world sees
only the facade i use
to cover the empty stare
and the glazed eyes
i wonder inside
if i will ever be
good enough for my
own standards
which are so high
an angel would fall
trying to reach them
and i am still nothing,
if i can't be perfect,
if i can't have everything
well then,
i'd rather have nothing at all 11/19/2003 Posted on 11/20/2003 Copyright © 2025 Melinda Sordino
