Listen to poem:
i have a bubble of nothingness growing relentlessly inside taking up more and more room till i just pray it will explode this nothingness might have a name or it might not i don't want to talk about it and it might go away to just expand into oblivion on one other hand what i want is the warmth of peace the kind that infuses and isn't ruled by nothingness and chaos yet i may as well be in the furthest galaxy dodging demons i can't fight off fleeing demons that aren't my own demons he can't or won't let go AP: Honorable Mention 2023 Posted on December 11, 2022

A contrary view ~ Nothingness as in no-thing in the void is cognised by awareness but darkened by identity. If thoughts rest, identity recedes, regrets and fears vaporise. What remains is presence eternal, one with oneness, pristine and complete, in perfect, brilliant bliss energised stillness.
