Nothing

I am afraid of nothing
I am terribly afraid……. of nothing

So I go…. to and fro
Looking any which way to go
So you won’t know
That I am afraid
That I am terribly afraid …..of nothing

Nothing at the end of the road
Nothing to sugar coat
Nothing at the end of the aisle
Nothing to make it worth while

Nothing…… what’s nothing?
It’s Nothing!
Who knows nothing?
I don’t…… do you?
By knowing nothing
You know something

I am afraid of nothing
I am terribly afraid…… of nothing

To say, do, hear, feel, taste, see, think nothing
For I might know something
And what if that something is me?
And I am nothing
