Zen Nihilism

In Zen's embrace, we find the void, A nihilistic truth, often destroyed. No meaning, no purpose, all fades away, In stillness and emptiness, we choose to stay. The world's illusions, they come and they go, Like ripples on water, a fleeting show. In nothingness, we find a profound peace, Where attachments and desires finally cease. No gods, no masters, no grand design, Just the present moment, pure and divine. In Zen nihilism, we let it all be, Finding freedom in the vast, boundless sea.
