Nothing is the loss of …

Troubles that haunt
   Memories that taunt
Possessions that own
   Eyes that stare stone
A world that commands
   Schedules that demand
Commitments that contain
   Hurts that stain
Judgments that chain
   Relationships that claim
People that require
   Feelings that desire
Beliefs that hold
   Hearts that are cold
Love’s that hurt
   Hearts that burst
Expectations that control
   Life without soul
Nothing looses not, everything begins.
