The Void
Like a punch to the gut
My breath is gone
Out of the blue
Into pitch black
Without a whisper
Without a signal
You disappeared
Don’t blink, I say
Don’t close your eyes
For those seconds
Will change your life
A snap of your fingers
The crack of a whip
It is gone forever
And it is never coming back
Don’t you want to scream
‘Stop’ all this spinning
I am getting so dizzy
And I want to get off
Where is the button
To put the world on pause
I don’t want to miss anything
But I am not sure I can go on
Does anybody hear me
Hear my thoughts cry out
In silent desperation
For crying out loud
Beyond a shadow of doubt
Will you catch me
Because I’m falling fast
Into the void
Into the pitch black
Out of the blue
There is no coming back. March 1, 2022 ~ Katherine Spitzer
