Nothing Poem by Reds Writings

Nothing

The echo rang, my soul hollow and in pain. Almost nothing left. As she gave me one last gift.

Profound damage to my soul, and I can't manage to feel the cold. Or much of anything for that matter. 'I'm fine, nothing is wrong or the matter' I say as the family gathers.

Tension and points of contention, as I confront the hollow husk that has become my reflection. I only see someone who's past the point of redemption. What's left of my soul is fading away as I lose connection, of who I used to be. I have little recollection.

I want to stop the soul consuming hollowness.
I want to stop the agonizing sadness.
I want to make my great escape, maybe finally have peace and happiness, to stop feeling this madness, to stop the growing listless numbness, as I return what's left of my broken soul back to the black nothingness.
