Free

I want to disappear in a whirlwind of words

forgetting everything at once

and dissolving into void

I want to rise like smoke

and dissipate in a gust

merging into nothing

unbound and free at last

I want to glide like rain into the sea

splashing, then I’ll go

wash away my skin and flow with all that is

I want to take a breath

and know infinity before exhaling

divinely still

and calm as stone

and vast as blackest space
