Nothing

I have nothing, but I am so much
I’ve lost something, but I gain who I am
I was looking for laughter and love
I realized that happiness lies in giving

I have nothing, but I am so much
With my eyes closed, I see who I am
I tried to hold you tight
I let go and received love

I have nothing, but I am so much
I have lost everything that I am not
& gained the path to myself.
