Ringing

Blending memories in stagnant air

makes it hard to breathe

Disappearing without a trace

not a drop left 

dry

desolate

empty

vacant

labeled - named - titled - tainted

Identified by mysterious unknown upbringings

noticed only by the ears left ringing

This is so deep. The whole fading into nothingness thing can be sort of terrifying, but leaving something behind that will actually last can be so hard, especially since you're not around to see how the world changes. I love how you dealt with this subject, well done.

well done...and yes, we do just disappear sooner or later...for poets, we hope our work will remain behind us to give some credence to our existence.

People really do fade into the "nothing" - as if they never were. And we let them... sigh

and yes, sad but true
