The Void of Wanting

A short free verse

By Simran DanielPublished 12 months ago 1 min read
Image created with AI

There was a dream I had once,

Created on the precipice of illusion and desire,

Where I stood on the brink of reality,

Gaping into the void of my wants,

I was consumed with them, sloth ensnared,

Till all faded into colossal nothingness.
