“In the hush of the void, where shadows forget their form,
I linger, unclaimed by breath or the grave's cold storm.
Not alive in the pulse of dawn's fleeting light,
Nor dead in the silence of eternal night.
Suspended in ether, a whisper without a voice,
Where heartbeats echo but offer no choice.
Beyond the fire of love, the ice of hate's blade,
Emotions unravel, in nothingness fade.
Here, endings converge like rivers to sea,
No beginnings to chase, no chains to set free.
Existence dissolves in the gray in-between,
A realm without edges, unseen and unclean.
The only path woven through fragments of dream,
Is the thread of the limbo, the infinite seam—
Where I am the question that answers deny,
Forever adrift, where I can't live nor die.
