Void

A void
shapeless
and undefined

Desirous
Painfully so
Of what?
I know not

Murmurs
now and then
What and why
Beyond my ken

Looms
Like a wraith
Shapeless
and watchful

I know it's here
Or is it there?
Feeding
on moonlight
Observing
coldly
Me & my shadow

I grope
in vain
'Tis thinner
than air


Only suffocating


Inscrutable,
That silent shriek
tinged with my own blood.
