something and nothing

something and nothing

the page is blank before me and I don’t know what to do

so much is going on within me, how to get it through

will the words I use describe well, the feelings that are there

or will they cause misunderstanding, to speak them – ah dinnae dare!

how often are things filtered through the understanding of our mind

if we’re having a bad day, things can seem unkind

if we’re having a good day, things can seem so good

depending on what our filters are, will affect what we’ve understood

alot can be said about nothing, alot of words can be used to describe

alot of verbs and nouns and adjectives can give a particular vibe

I find words can bring alot of confusion, I find words can bring comfort so pure

I find words can be your greatest enemy, I find words can be the perfect cure

I heard words can be like toothpaste, squeezed out of a tube in a rush

once out you cannot return them, so you better have a good brush!

this ode is really about something, and nothing all at the same time

like so many things in this life, to discover the meaning sublime

I’d better head off now to rest, for another day is almost at an end

I must get some sleep before morning or I’ll simply go round the bend
