The page stares back at me

Empty to Empty

Plain white, how do I mark it with grey

Plain and simple, how do I say

That I don’t know what to say 

Because the words that I say to you

Will never be true

My love will die with my life

Infinity can’t even fit in my mind

I can scribble something about meaning to mean something 

But even that seems fake

I can write my life in words that seem right

But that wouldn’t take

I could write about what comes before me

I could write about apocalypse 

But even ending doesn’t seem to be complete

I can’t go on forever

But I don’t want to end

I can’t write a single letter

On this paper I need to send 

I don’t mean anything

Like the words I write

I can’t say anything

Because it would just be a lie

How do I make you care 

What do I put on this abyss of white

How do I tell you

What do I even write

I can’t even start

How am I supposed to go on forever 

Or even end

When I can’t start

Not to live

Not to die

Not to even write 

A single word on this paper

Forget permanence, Forget a good end

How am I supposed to be here in the first place

I have nothing

I am nothing 

I was never here to begin with

I am just a dream

Dreamt to sleep

So here I end

An attempt to stop

And on the paper is not even a drop
