'How does nothing weigh so much?'

Darkest darkness and biting wind,
Billowing towards a gaping hole,
Soaking everything in a morose tint,
Leaving behind secrets untold.
Heavy is the heart that carries nothing.
What a paradox it is, do you not see?
One touch of blackness coating everything,
Eating away at what makes me be.
I am full of something made out of nothing,
And I never thought emptiness would weigh so much.
