I feel as if
I am not here anymore,
I am but a hole
In the space
That I used to
Occupy before,
And when a part of me
Feels around for
The rest of my being
In the great oblivion,
It finds nothing
To hold on to except
For profound nothingness—
I cannot complain.

I love the ending, Aaysid. A shift in thought and tone occurred with the last line. A “profound nothingness” – the ultimate detachment. ✨🧘🏻♀️✨

Profound nothingness— ✨ you are in good company when you find profound nothingness. Wow! Love this.
Because nothingness is BE-ing emptiness and when one is empty one can grasp a lot and grow
A wonderful poem. So deep. Loved

I have also written a poem about this Hole you’re describing. I hope you find the strength in yourself to climb out of it, follow the light.
Ps: discovered you via Instagram, you’re an amazing poet 💛
