Gordan Struić
Nothing
What could I ever
give to you?
Maybe silence –
stripped,
still.
You ask
where I’m passing through –
I have no home,
no shore
to reach.
No joy
to offer,
not even me.
Just a breath,
the kind
that never warms.
A weight
you carry
without sound.
A drift
where dreams
sink
and vanish.
A thing
in
nothing.
