Nothing without Conscience

The space between stars is how you felt before you were born. Do you remember it?


It was a vast emptiness of nothing,

There was no light or dark,

No happy or sad.

You didn’t feel alone or scared,

but nor were you excited or anxious.


You had no conscience to make thoughts,

to appreciate or to fear,

No memories or emotions,

but it wasn’t desolate or bleak.


This is how the space between stars feels.

It’s everything you felt before you were born,

and it’s how you’ll feel after you die.


It is nothing.
