OBLIVION

I sit there staring straight at it

Watching it disappear

Bit by bit

I’m too entangled with it

Maybe I’m a part and parcel of it

The more I look at it

The less I see

It stares back hard

Now I’m scared

I don’t know what it’s thinking

It looks menacing

But I know I’m not liking this feeling

Now I can’t feel anything anymore

The world just fades away

Along with everything in it

I see my sisters

I call out to them

I stretch forth my hands

But they don’t seem to hear me

They don’t seem to see me

What is this?

Is this death taking a tour of me?

Is this life after death?
