Don’t be afraid 

Too much

Of the unknown 

And the known

Because

It doesn’t matter

Try to be strong

Inside

Despite the pain

Don’t we know

It’s not

Supposed to matter 

Why do we care

So much

About the hurt

And the fear

That kills

What doesn’t matter?

Think of the days

Long gone

When we could see

And believe

Something

Could truly matter

Can we still live

Alone

Within the dark

And silence

Where we

Know we don’t matter?

So we find peace

Outside

Lasting comfort

In the end

We know

That nothing matters

But how can we

Conceal

Our torture

Our tears

When nothing matters?

We can’t be free

Can we

Of our nightmares

Legacy

Even

Though nothing matters
