Nothing

Abstraction
Layer upon layer they throw
Forced to lift the stones that make
The balance tilt, alternate
Start before one says go.

Connection
Their veins are coated with wire
And it goes on for one, two, three
Losing count, she thinks it's free
And they pursue what they admire.

Distraction
The components beep, snap, and ring.
The clock ticks fast and horizons differ
White, brown, blue, black, wither
How long can they last this thing?

Destruction
The water touches the scale, reaching
The metal that keeps it together.
He never succeeded to get her
And there was the dry sea, breaching.

Sublimation
Swirling thoughts around her head
He cut his ropes, she did the same
Their only knowledge was their names
Wondering, did they see the red?

Realization.
The face of a phase.

Correction.
The way it began.
