EMPTY - new poem

A dark without a way out
Drawn, I fall back
Slowly, arm's outstretched
My body drops and drifts
Slow motion, yet all is a blur
I watch as I disappear into the empty
Like Sinking into black water
I slowly sink beneath the surface
Holding my breath, heart beating faster
There is nothing but heart beats now
Echoing like thunder, then fading
They seem further and further apart
I try too remember before
To find footing as I fall further
Am I still falling? Or rising?
I feel the black swirl around me
Heart beats sound like a memory
Sounds far away and blurry
I blink to try to focus
Or was it a memory of blinking?
Where am I? Am I?
I am so aware... of nothing
Perception ceases
Thought falls to a lost memory
Empty consumes, yet never fills
Or does it?
