goodbye after goodbye
worlds drifted apart
brick by brick
barriers were raised
moments within moments
they became just memories
prayers, more prayers
but no one listened
took nothing away from nothing
and only nothing remained
…
we could have had it all

Your poems always leave me in a thoughtful mood, but this is on another level.
“took nothing away from nothing
and only nothing remained”
Wow!
