Nothing

It’s not my pain

It’s hers

What will I ever lose or gain

The teary eyes

The running nose

The hysterical hands to clear off those

I heard the silence

It pinched my soul

It tells me it’s real

Without a corporeal

I try to comfort the stricken

But who will do me the same

No one knows

No one ever came

Push it too far

It’s still right there

There was no question

To the answers I gave.
