Help me solve this mind boggling question.

Zero is nothing,
So does that make it something?
A name perhaps
Or should we relax?
While we ponder this here fair question.

If zero is something,
What exactly is something?
The absence of something,
Can this really be nothing?

If nothing is there,
Then something needs to be here.
For if we want to be fair
And not get lost in our hair.
We shall just saw that zero is nothing.

For now we are at peace
Currently, at least.
Until we come find another problem,
Which will soon be then.
Zero shall be nothing,
Unless you want it to be something.
