Void Walker

You will find no reflection here Once you unfix your gaze And look past these darkened irises Into the abyssal pools they frame I don’t blame you if you turn away I’ve done it much of my life To sip from this endless void Is to drown In being whole I spend these years Dropping through this mirror Of my making Still wishing I could draw in A wisp of the ebbing earth’s air Find some way to walk in this world Like I was born into it Yet this mortal flesh is just a breath Of what I truly am To drown here Is just to return to myself
You will find no reflection here
Once you unfix your gaze
And look past these darkened irises
Into the abyssal pools they frame
I don’t blame you if you turn away
I’ve done it much of my life
To sip from this endless void
Is to drown
In being whole
I spend these years
Dropping through this mirror
Of my making
Still wishing I could draw in
A wisp of the ebbing earth’s air
Find some way to walk in this world
Like I was born into it
Yet this mortal flesh is just a breath
Of what I truly am
To drown here
Is just to return to myself
