Everything is nothing

Those shakes threw off everything from the shelves
Picture books and family photos
All empty
Nothing stays

Those waves gulped everything in the towns
Houses and people
All silence
Nothing stays

Dark deep hole
Why do I live
What is my life
All the creation collapsed
We are nothing 

When the sun rises you will know

You will know that
Everything was nothing
Then from nothing everything starts

Everything will be everything again

And that’ll mean everything  someday
