By Thomas Caterer
I am conscious of everything
I am conscious of nothing
There was a reason for each night of tears
There was a reason for years of fears
There was no reason for any of the above
Some beings love your soul
Some beings hate you
There are no reasons really
There are too many reasons to count
In being alone, loneliness dies
With the deprivation of the basic things you need,
all your basic needs are satisfied
Your endless lust and greed are satiated
by the endless void of nothing
The silence is deafening
until it isn’t
The darkness is blinding
until it isn’t
The soul is wanting
until it isn’t
Take the time you need to learn
but once wise please return
to play with the other children
and guide them
teaching them not to fear the goddess of change,
cling to nothing at all
befriended life and death, not fearing change at all
