The Evolution of Nothing

The Evolution of Nothing

A Poem by Ryan Nicole

I find it quite odd,
That the symbol of love, 
Is not identical in shape to the heart beating inside of us.

Maybe it's because,
Love is non-existent among the human race,
And is a false front,
To the depressing reality we are forced into living, 
Controlled by a selfish puppeteer.

Maybe it's because, 
The love that is supposed to be pumping through our veins,
Is traveling to a diddly no where,
While our bodies ignore our complete void.

Maybe it's because,
We need something to fulfill our emptiness,
While we are evolving this non-existent feeling into nothing.

Or maybe it is just because,
Our minds suggest we need to grasp a fake hope to keep us living,
And it is just a false feeling keeping us alive,
While we slowly die alone.
