Happiness

By TheBardOfBlasphemy

Weightless, shapeless, senseless, fateless
Lightless, timeless, soundless, spaceless

E M P T I N E S S

There is less to this useless nothingness
than I could care to confess. Life is a mess…

A I M L E S S

Unless my direction be described as “downness”,
or regress. I’m unguided by a starless sky –
but I couldn’t care less…

D R E A M L E S S

It’s pointless to sleep less and think more unless you
possess a dream. My guess is best left unsaid –
I might as well be headless.
There is nothing left…

G O D L E S S

This figureless devotion leaves me fearless,
it leaves me cheerless,
I am fatherless and hungerless.
I feel no need to bless the worthless rest,
my only creed – to love me less than hate itself.

THERE IS NOTHING LEFT

Unless…

    Faithless...is untangeable hope that is formless and pours onto the floor like my cowarding and shapless life because of my niceness......I like how you use the words and the rythmic tone of the nese ness ness
