Wasting away in my existence
Opening my eyes
To what's not there
Wasting away without a care

Fading away in my existence
Closing my eyes
To what's in front of me
Fading away into nothingness

My existence is no longer there
Diminishing till it got here
I no longer exist
I lost what there was to live
The flame of life extinguished

Nothing to live for again
There is nothing to keep me here
Yet I still live

Wasting and fading away
Till I'm no longer able to exist
Wasting and fading away
Till I open my eyes
To what's really there

I've wasted
I've faded
Into nothingness

Fading Existence

Wasting away in my existence
Opening my eyes
To what's not there
Wasting away without a care

Fading away in my existence
Closing my eyes
To what's in front of me
Fading away into nothingness

My existence is no longer there
Diminishing till it got here
I no longer exist
I lost what there was to live
The flame of life extinguished

Nothing to live for again
There is nothing to keep me here
Yet I still live

Wasting and fading away
Till I'm no longer able to exist
Wasting and fading away
Till I open my eyes
To what's really there

I've wasted
I've faded
Into nothingness
My existence

Great poem. It helps me think of faded thoughts and places.
God bless. Peace

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
