An apparition came to me today,

He told me I was nothing,

Born of ashes,

Doomed to return,

To less than ashes,

And with those words I am content,

If I am close to nothing,

Please god,

Reduce me to nothing,

Yet you raised me,

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

With grand delusions,

Oh, so grand,

Why?

You structured it,

The reality around me,

Weaving delusions with truth,

You said go,

How will you react?

And I've acted accordingly,

But please god,

If I am close to nothing,

Reduce me to nothing,

God giveth and he taketh away,

What we know as living as a billionaire,

What we know as having slept with hundreds of beautiful women,

What we know of as supreme knowledge,

What we know of as a technologically advanced world,

What we know as groundbreaking medicine,

What we know as having found true love and living happily ever after,

God can reduce to nothing,

So please god,

While I am close to nothing,

Before all that,

Reduce me to nothing,

I beg of you,

Do not give me the world,

Only to rip it from my arms,

Do not let me find love,

To wake me from a delusion,

The truth is what you make of it,

But please god,

If am close to nothing,

Reduce me to nothing,

Or all my yearning, please satisfy them...
