It’s a Very Sad Thing to Be Nothing at All
Vandalizing, heart wrenching sorrow
Wipes all the pain away
And the earth’s moving vase of shadow
And the earth’s moving vase of shadow
Has more than what you have to weigh
Deep, empty, and shallow
Is all it’s core have left to give
Something small
Or anything tall
It’s a very sad thing to be nothing at all
Riding on a small brink
Of death’s cooling air
Too hopeless enough to think
Why life is so unfair
The wind picks up it’s tailor
Sewing laughter everywhere
You caught a wall
And watched me fall
It’s a very sad thing to be nothing at all
You watched me sink
While you hold onto life’s brink
Splattering into an endless void of dark ink

Like your other you shared with me, the music here is strong.
Can hear it, as each stanza closes to the last three lines.
Also like the center justification for this one.
Sorrow as “vandalizing” was unexpected and strong.
