Nothing

Nothing

It always seemed so hollow,
It always seemed so frail.
In the fullness of time decay sets in,
Breaking the mould again.

It always seemed so restless,
It always seemed to change.
Except in the beginning,
It always seemed so strange.

Nothing more than absolute honesty revealed.
Nothing more than absolute tragedy concealed.
You always seemed so cold and distant,
Always cold to me.

You always seemed so worn and broken,
Crawling to your feet.

Nothing less than absolution,
Nothing less than this.
Nothing less than your forgiveness,
Nothing I can say.

Nothing I can do will make it real,
Nothing but you.
