Haunted by the past
Flashes of fear
Darkness seeping the psyche
Death walking on the edge

Lost the grip of life
Easing way to nothingness

Reborn a fool
Searching for nothing

Everyone fools me
Are they fooling themself

Where is nothingness
Is it a illusion or is this illusion?

This poem feels heavy in an honest way – like a mind speaking without filters. I really like the stark, clipped lines; they mirror the emotional numbness and confusion you’re describing, especially in “Easing way to nothingness”. The shift from darkness to the uneasy idea of being “reborn a fool” is striking and painful in a very human sense. The closing questions linger, too – they don’t offer comfort, but they feel truthful, and that gives the poem its strength.
