I saw nothing… I felt nothing.
These thoughts were ahead of their time—
My mind and body were only six.
Unsure of the weight those thoughts would cause,
At a time I could not comprehend.
The concepts those thoughts brought to my head;
Surely they’ll pass by and let me rest.
I saw nothing… I felt nothing.
My past and future are the same place in time.
Nothingness revealed itself, I was six.
Panicked in place that forsaken night.
Those thoughts raced while I paced.
Assuring myself what I was facing,
Would surely pass… and let me rest.
I saw nothing… I felt nothing.
I closed my eyes and saw my world end,
Felt cold and hollow— as if my blood had drained.
My universe collapsed while I was six,
To experience nothing at an young age.
The numbness felt close to death.
Surely it would pass… and let me rest.
I saw nothing… I felt nothing.
The cost of knowing abstraction too soon.
My life meant nothing to time at six.
Death felt certain, even then.
My mind broke that day— my reality changed.
I was never the same, because it all changed.
But surely… surely these thoughts would let me rest.
