You May Have

You may have anything I have,
the air, that I breath,
sound and songs I hear,
even light captured in my eyes.

You may have anything,
that I have, you see,
for nothingness is all.
What do you require?

In nothingness, everything is true,
perhaps everything we need.
For nothing we've come,
to where do you desire?

You may have everything,
in what, I have nothing.
If it pleases you so,
in darkness we will retire.

Keep all of it, I say to you,
for nothingness is everything.
Everything is actually nothing,
and in us, you'll have it all..
