Ouroboros

This emptiness fills me,
Consumes me, from within.
This nothing is scrawled
As graffiti on the walls.
Eternity’s footsteps just dust now
Etched out like a secret code in the dirt.
A diatribe against existence
Shouted into the vacuum
Echoing through these empty halls.
But I’m numb to the pain now,
A shadow of what I was;
Nothing’s real, nothing hurts.
