Nothing

Nothing but space between us
Nothing but holes within us

Sinking into your tranquil abyss
I find a place to resist

Somewhere I will long to kiss
A place to sit and to dismiss

Everything I try to get
Within the walls of this misfit

How could I know you?
Why I wouldn't want to.

Why I wouldn't try this.
Because there is nothing.

It is deep, very moving. And I agree, the repeated 's' sound does make it sound like hissing, which adds to the words and makes them come alive even more. Very good!

This is very well written and deep. The kind of writing I look for on this website. I liked the repetition of the s sound. Like hissing.
