The void



The void.
I feel the empty void in me.
I try to fill it.
I failed.
No food, no emotions, nothing about the void.
The void feels my mind, heart and body.
I run.
Trying to escape the void.
It follows.
Tap, tap tap.
I hear they’re not telling me to let the void in.
The vast void virtuously won.
I failed to escape.
I feel the empty void.
It fills me.
I’m not so empty anymore.
