Nothingness Breathes

[subtle arch]

I used to fear nothingness after death,
But today the nothingness breathes as I breathe.

I might be alive ,but-
My chest feels heavy,
My heart is hollow,
It used to ache
But now it works like a clock
Merely a mechanical tick tock .

I carry my insignificance like a second skin,
All I've felt will leave no mark.
All of me fades .
While my lungs still fill with air.

You mustn't stop breathing to die,
You die the day nothingness consumes you.
The day you become the dread itself.

[slender dagger]

This one was the best of your poems today, I also think about “unresting death”, about nothing looking at nothing either forever or immediately a new birth

This poem explains the feeling of losing the joy of life , the feeling of life while being alive
