Ode to Nothing

Nothing
Is there pressing close against my face.
Nothing
Always there filling up the empty space.

Nothing 
Is there - the most tried and true friend.
Nothing
Will certainly be there in the end.

Nothing
Will always lead and also follow.
Nothing 
Is ever full and ever quite hollow.

Nothing
Connects an object to its given name.
Nothing
Appears behind the curtains of pride and shame.

Nothing
Shall always and evermore be.
Nothing 
Shall exist for all eternity.
