I wish I was an atom
Floating around aimlessly
No responsibility or care
Free of life & its living
I wish I was the invisible air
You’d breathe me in and I’d disappear
Ceasing to exist entirely
The moment I fill into your being
I wish I were the unspoken
The hundreds & hundreds of avoided things
Might be words or happenings
But then I’d be inconsequential
As not a being would mention a hint of me
I wish I was nothing
A ceaseless non-existent [It]
To be abandoned to an abyss
So I’d be free of watchful colored eyes
So I’d be a mindless… Heartless
Body-less mass of absolutely nought

More common than what people think. The desire to be nothing. Well put in this poem expressing the desire to be free from feeling, responsibility, desire and need. Well put
The urge to be released from the pressures of life for a little while, and just be free, lovely write
Excellent write
