is overflowing
you're drowning
something broke
it shatters
but there is nothing

shadows cascading
they look at you
are they real?
vision darkens
but there is nothing

it's calling
your hand twitched
with shaky breaths,
you close your eyes
"there is nothing."

empty bottles
tired, dry eyes
your knees gave up
is there something you can do?

there is nothing.

if there is nothing,
yet why
is it
so heavy?
