Nothing but this body.

I will be here
and in my death
I won’t be there
I’ll be the ashes in the air
and not a soul left behind
because I am nothing
but this body you see
burning of this flesh
the ashes swarming
I’ll be everywhere
and nowhere
because I’ll be nothing
as the wind gathers me
whipping me about
my body a dead host
and my brain demolished
I’ll be gone
I will no longer think
no longer stress
no longer try
because as wrong as I am
it won’t matter in the end
and as I right as I want
I’ll only be the words I written
and the words I spoken
and yet I’ll be nothing
but the ashes
entering your lungs
as you struggle to breathe
I will be everywhere
and yet nowhere
because my brain
will be nothing
and my thoughts
will be empty
and I’ll be nothing but ashes.

Thanks for reading.
