id est quod id est

By LIFEINVADER

in the void, where stars dare not gleam,
es lo que es—the silent scream

cold and empty, the night's embrace,
a life devoid of time and place

existence bleeds, stark and grim,
no tears to shed, no hymns to sing

es lo que es—so it remains,
a void where only nothing reigns
