Nothing
Nothing but the Black Amnesia
A panoramic view of formlessness (wastes)
My eyes are not eyes
Pools of the void, though out of the void
Shadows form
Shadow-beings pour and spill forth
Like a nightmare - cataleptic terror ineffable
In fear they shuffle slowly and sadly about me
Wordlessly they speak of great loss
Disembodied hearts, the lost souls
They have lost their battles -
I see scars and surrenderings
Hope was their last sword - now broken and blunted
Hope was their only shield - now shattered, useless
This
This is the place of fear, heavy and endless
A place of mourning, sorrow and regret
And here
In this limbo
The horizon of defeat stretches forever.
