The death of Identity

What is left 

when the house burns down? 

Nothing but lain ash

upon the memories 

of former life

What is left

when the identity burns down?

Nothing but emptiness

upon the memories

of a former death 

There is never a return 

The house burns 

As do I

Ash and emptiness 

of someone

something 

Dissolved into the Dark 

There is no one home 

and don’t bother 

to ask the neighbour 

For the neighbour 

has no recollection 

of anyone

or anything 

There is never a return 

What now

after the house burns down ?

Nothing 

What here

once the identity burns down?

Everything
