Infinity

In my solitary madness and despair,

I strive to reach the furthest layer.

Fly above as far up as I can stretch

and fall far bellow my comfortable ledge.

I’ve known equally loss and gain

for both have given me the worst of pain.

I’ve felt my soul crystal, soft, and pure

and I’ve felt it angry, ruthless, and immured.

Love has slipped through false conclusions.

I’ve admitted my defeat to all illusions.

I’ve endured betrayal and incrimination

and many times retreated to my isolation.

I’ve felt hunger, fear, and loss so great

but made peace with my intolerable fate.

I dove into the well of wisdom depth

where I died at once a thousand deaths,

I lost control to selflessly commit

body, soul, and mind now melt and split.

I have all the eyes I need to see.

Nowhere’s everywhere where I can be.

Today I live. I don’t exist.

Infinity is just a Zero with a twist.
