Whirlpool in a Sink

Whirlpool in a sink:
The water disappears, never to come back again.
Hopes fade away,
As do all dreams.
Everything I thought I was;
Everything I thought I would be.
Everything fades away,
Twirling around all that is real,
All that is painful,
And all that was so far hidden,
By the depth of the water in the sink.

Whirlpool in a sink:
For everything I thought I was,
I am nothing
But an empty sink.
