I think we all have to learn to love and be at peace with ourselves first and then when that certain someone comes along we can be more with them. I really like the way you wrote this; even the title!
Nice going

I dig the philosophical nature of this. Welcome to the Showcase, Robert.

I love your title, "I give you my nothing"
This poem left me thinking, philosophizing, and contemplating... love it love it love it...

I've realized that the more you try to judge people and things, the less you will see and understand them for what they really are. Ironically, we are always our own worst critics. Perhaps that's why self-acceptance is often one's toughest battle in life, and a battle that is not won overnight, but one day at a time. There are innumerable things in life that we can not and will not be able to understand, so why waste our time trying. All we can do is attempt to figure ourselves out, which is a major feat within itself. There are certain things I have accepted about myself, and others I am working on, but realizing this phenomenon is the first step. It's far better than living a life based on other people's opinions and expectations.

hi Robert that was beatiful, i think i love it so much because i relate to it, you must have real pain inside to write something like this.

Thank you all for the wonderful comments. I have so much going on right now and so much to say. I look forward to sharing with you more.
