Ode to the Void

I am no cosmic marvel—
no black hole’s crushing embrace,
no myth hung in Babylon’s skies.
Yet I float, unbound,
a whisper in the infinite.

And oh, how I adore this nothingness,
this sacred hollowness—
where desire crumbles to dust,
and all worldly hungers
find their silent, final rest.
