Existing as Everything

Existing as Everything

A Poem by metaljelly

One day I woke up and I forgot how to breathe.
I lifted my head and I was not home.
In the mirror I was not me; I could not believe.
I walked out the door, this house was alone.
I now live in a canvas of space;
I turn around and the house is gone.
There is nothing, but the nothing is my place.
I disappear, I can no longer see myself, and this is where I belong.
Overwhelming blankness.
Now that I'm completely gone I can finally see me,
now that nothing exists I am everything.
In this brand new nothing I can finally be me,
now that there is no one else I can be anything.
I'm not alive but I am all.
I can't go anywhere else but I am free.
When you're floating you can't fall.
How many other people hate to see?
