I Am Nothing

Like specks of sand blown
By non-existent winds
All that is me
Disperses into air

Grain by grain I feel
Them as they leave my soul
Sailing through the ether
Sweeping me away

Feeling and seeing
From the perception of all
Until my awareness
Envelopes my surrounds

I feel myself lift
As I sink deeper in
The everything around
Connected by light

The soul and force
Of the abiding spirit
Swallows me as I breathe
Its life into me

I am all
I am nothing
