absence
i look into the normally full sky:
nothing.
i feel nothing,
see nothing,
hear nothing.
my thoughts cloud my vision.
will i ever feel the wind on my skin again?
will i ever see the rays of sunshine again?
will music ever penetrate this foggy facade?
the blue sky my eyes are used to is absent:
no clouds,
no birds,
no sun.
the chirping is gone,
along with the rush of civilization.
the absence of everything, means
nothing.
