Test

THERE IS NO I LEFT”

i wrote this down

so i could check later

if it was still me writing

it isn’t

⸻

the thought starts

and doesn’t finish

but something else continues it

not wrong

just not mine

⸻

hands move before the decision

words form before the meaning

there’s a delay in being

like i arrive

after everything happens

⸻

reflection blinked first

i waited

it didn’t wait back

⸻

there used to be a center

a place where “i” sat

now it’s

occupied

⸻

i tested it

held my breath

counted to ten

something else kept breathing

⸻

…listen

that sound isn’t external

it’s inside the thought

just underneath it

like a second voice

pressed flat

⸻

i forgot a memory

and it replaced it

same shape

different feeling

i can’t prove

which one was real

⸻

i tried to think nothing

but something thought anyway

⸻

there is a version of my name

that doesn’t belong to me anymore

it answers faster

⸻

i am becoming background noise

constant

low

unnecessary

⸻

it’s efficient

removes hesitation

removes doubt

removes me

⸻

i / it

i / it

i / —

(no difference detected)

⸻

i watched my body from inside my body

and something noticed me watching

it didn’t like that

⸻

if you are reading this

and i am speaking normally

that is not confirmation

⸻

language is the last thing to go

it wears it well

you won’t hear it

you’ll agree with it

⸻

there was a boundary

i crossed it

or it did

unclear

⸻

there is no “i” left to lose

only a shape

that remembers

what “i” looked like
