Like The Clouds

The clouds move by like a screensaver

I stand motionless, but they keep smoothly crossing the sky

I admire this about life

And also question it

They look close enough to touch

But when I reach

I only feel nothing

And yet I breathe in the nothingness around me

I exhale the nothingness too

I feel alive

But this is not my body

But my memories tell me lifetimes worth of stories

I close my eyes

I feel dizzy

I open my eyes

And i am standing still

But the clouds still move like a screensaver

Do I spin with the earth when im not looking?

Do I move smoothly like the clouds?

And yet, am nothingness too?

Do I move like the clouds do?

You try to reach for me and feel, nothingness

But you need to survive

You admire me

Like I admire the sky

But it’s not real

And neither am I
