Everything and Nothing

Anonymous's picture

i.
I was terrified-
of something-
nothing,
getting hurt,
losing
the moment,
not losing it.

ii.
I said
nothing,
because I
thought it was-
for you.

iii.
I over react
alot.
Now I'm wondering
if I was.

iv.
I listened
to
everything.

v.
Everything.

Sometimes when people write

Submitted by qwertygirl890123 on June 17, 2008 - 20:28.

Sometimes when people write these, each poem is completely seperate, but in yours they all fit together, like each one is a continuation of the previous, but at the same time they could each be seperate.

I love how each little poem gets smaller and smaller, until it is just one word.
