From dust of ancient journeys
I have come to risen
Drawn was my design
from antiquity’s surmise
All this while, I thought I knew
who and what I have become
But I tell you, it is no surprise
at any given point in time, one’s done
For I have surely realized
I ain’t got nothin'!
Who shall retard the inevitable?
Who shall challenge Nature's laws?
I cannot dissuade my finite time
Nor can I control my aching heart
I who think I am, cannot oppose
the damage that goes on in darkness
For I ain’t got nothin'
I have no control of this life
I am not the one who started out
Nor will I be the same in conclusion
For this day I live to borrow time
to watch how I disappear
I have no clue of tomorrow
nor the days that fade with the sun
For I ain’t got a clue of who I am
thus, I ain’t got nothin'!

Yes, my Queen, we go about our business inside a shell, judging, pointing fingers, criticizing, nose up and high and mighty, but in the end, we are but dust that dissipates into nothingness, never to be seen or heard from again! So, I've go nothing, but the breath I take! Thank you love, for your comments and your smarts!
I've read this poem again and I think you know who you are. I think you are trying to tell other people if they don't know who they are or what purpose they serve then they ain't got nothin'. Am I right? Great write, good job, thanks,
This is a really great poem, and a person never knows when their life on this earth is done, but that's why you sjould live life to the very fullest and have no regrets about anything.
To the world you might be one person, To one person you might be the world, who do you want to be Roger? Then that is who you are. Great write good job thanks,
