Nothingness

by: Uel Ceballos

For here I am

At the mercy of my own conscience

That while I behold the glorious vastness

Of the sky

I hearkened sincere and true to the

Whispers of my soul

But those I cannot comprehend,

Not with my human senses

For how can a mortal understands

A soul without a spiritual guidance

So I just let my mind adrift in

Nothingness

And look beyond the clouds

As far as my sight can get

I know I’m not a hopeless case

That’s what I think so at the least

For here I am

Battling against my own self

Casting away any pieces of guilt

That brings no help to make

Me feel at ease

For how can I go on with life

If I’m too powerless to forgive myself

I’m all too beaten to my own account

It’s me indeed who put myself

To such wreck

So I look up in the sea of white and blue

Hoping to find the answers

To end all my woes

I know I’m not a hopeless case

If that would serve at least

To grant me any solace
