nothing left to give

There are many ways that people measure their self-worth.

Being a filial son/daughter to your parents.
Through the eyes of the one you love.
As the protector for your children.
A friend who puts a smile on peoples faces, and helps heal broken hearts.
As a teacher maybe, where you mold the future.
A spiritual leader, helping others find peace, find solace, find God.
or even as the provider for ur dog tats all tat dependent on you.

I think ive just found the thread with which I measured mine.
In the past months, I'd tot that i pretty much didnt have all that much left in me,
but den i lost it.
I lost it and thats when i realised what it was.

n now its gone.
n im emptier than i have ever been..
i thought i was all spent, but u never know, u might surprise yourself.
so maybe in the future i'll have less than nothing, god knows.
but this is what it is now.

now,
even to me,
i know that i am nothing.
