The Dark Abyss

The Dark Abyss

Dedication

Written from a friend's description of how she often feels at home.

We love you Alicia.

With the coming hour,
I sense the impending doom.

I feel the cracks appearing,

Growing in their size.

The dark abyss between them,

Beckoning from below,

Appearing uninviting.

The fear that pulses through me,

Rivets me to the spot.

I feel the floor beneath,

Slowly giving way.

I see the walls beside me,

Slowly crumbling away.

Falling slowly into the abyss,

Located far down below.

Gravity takes hold,

I feel myself falling.

Falling below,

Unto my doom.

Into that dark abyss.
