Zooming out
Here I am, sitting at home,
looking down on myself,
and zooming out so I can
see the city where I live,
and pulling away further
to see the country where
I was born;
becoming smaller and smaller,
diluting within space.
Zooming out,
I see the earth,
so small it seems, I could hold it.
Here, I am nothing,
my identity is gone,
and as I pull back yet further,
she has disappeared to all but
a speck,
and I a speck within a speck,
falling away into oblivion,
having no meaning,
feeling so much pain
because I identify with the
speck within the speck,
instead of the observer,
zooming out.
