To Infinity and Beyond

The opulence of nothingness that fills the gap between the celestial bodies of our galaxy is simply… nothing.

With the absence of molecules to carry our voices across space, it is irrefutable that the answer to what’s out there, far from the vast majority of other questions we tend to ponder on, is silence. It is quite comical to think that the word “space” is synonymous with “silence,” and that the boundless entity of everything-ness is sealed with the boundless void of nothingness.

That’s what I long for. Nothingness.

Unfettered and unperturbed; A place to truly be free from the buzzing and rustlings of everything. Somewhere to truly be released from the chains of everything, somewhere to find comfort in a place of nowhere.

Though our lives, undoubtedly short and meaningless, I simply wish to be voided and erased from the world, erased of existence, reduced to nothing.

I long for freedom.

I long to disappear, surrendering to the absolute of the starry abyss.
