A Lot Like Nothing.

You know when you smile at me like that?
Like I'm the only living angel
The warmth in your eyes
your soothing voice
the beautiful words
and the clever vibe
I see right through it
A lot of nothing
and your love is a lot like nothing.
Forgive me if I don't understand,
But this is all I see.
A lot of love and a lot like nothing.

Haha, this made me laugh. I like that abrupt ending. Burst anticipation tickles my cheeks into a smile :)

I'm glad. :) Thanks.

[KAOlmsted]

Oh man...yeah. I can really relate to this. It's like, you hear the words and see the gestures but they're...hollow. Great write. Really enjoyed this one...honestly? Because of that twist at the end. Good on ya.

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Thank you Kimmer :)

[KAOlmsted]

This poem gave me a sense of comfort really. I always love your work :)

A lot of love and a lot like nothing.

Beautiful. :)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Thank you. :)

Words are merely words unless spoken by the heart. A lot like love and a lot like nothing, empty acions leave a want for truth. Nice.

[quinfinn]

if love makes you feel nothing can nothing make you feel love? this is quite the provocative write. it made me think very deeply, which makes this a very special piece. well done....

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Thank you quin. You always understand me.

[Irfan Bashir Shah]

Nice form and proper use of expressions.... A decent rhyme scheme too!
This is neatly crafted poem..... And on a side note, you being a Kashmiri makes me feel proud...
Well Done!

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Thank you. I am glad. Same words for you, making Kashmiris proud.

[Irfan Bashir Shah]

I'm humbled!

Sometimes I think you deliberately try to confuse me. ;-)

If someone brings out the best in us, helps us to be a better us, and makes us see it too, that's not nothing, that's something....or nothing, depending on your perspective, wait, I confused myself now....I need sleep. Good read. ;-)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

haha, I am so confused about it. Yes, if some one's always there for you, he surely loves you, in fact more than loves you but if he loves you, you ought to feel it. When someone loves you, you just know it and you believe in it.

[Frieda P]

That has nothing to do with him, that's on you hon....

[Mehak Mushtaq]

But he makes me feel sometimes, that he doesn't love me. That he's just a player and knows well how to handle girls.

[Frieda P]

Ahhh, that's a different story, then you say...hasta la vista, baby don't let the door smack your a*s on the way out, but you won't, we never learn. ;-)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

We never learn, right. I just hope he really is into me.

[Frieda P]

You're so young these are the lessons in life you get the most out of, pay attention, don't be stupido like me! ;-)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Hmm, hmm I don't know. :P I am stupid.

[Frieda P]

You're allowed to be at 16, what's my freaking excuse? ha ;-)

[Mehak Mushtaq]

haha, Fools rule the world.

[Frieda P]

See, you're smarter than me already!

[Mehak Mushtaq]

Sure. ;-)

[dunnia]

[Mehak Mushtaq]

hmm thanks

[dunnia]
