The Abyss
As I close my eyes,
A black abyss come upon them like the red sea parted no more,
I gasp for life but there was no more,
I was overcome by the rocky sea shore.
As I slowly opened my eyes to the eternal darkness to be,
I realized that nothing but a abyss of darkness could I see.
I darkness soo deep that the hole travels down to the very pits of hell,
I plunder and wonder how is it that I fell,
To such a place of horrid to be known,
Nothing at all but the darkness to be shown.
As I look around,
I find myself alone,
Without light,
Without love,
Without any word from above.
All that remains is the abyss,
Slithering in the shadows with a hiss.
I find myself searching into the endless night,
For just a little glimpse,
Just a prayer of light.
But nothing is what I find,
I realize I am slowly losing my mind.
There is no up,
There is no down,
There is only the abyss to be found.
Such a place of utter black,
Can't you cut me any slack?
Bur no answer do I hear,
Not a soul do I find near.
Just the cold shivering silence into the never ending eve,
I pray to my God in heaven for a door to be shown to leave.
I pray for just a glimpse of the glimmer of light,
Just a sparkle in the eternal night.
But nothing is what I find,
Again I feel myself slipping more and more out of mind.
Am growing insane,
I feel this journey is all in vain!
Where the hell am I?
I am not in heaven,
I am not in hell,
I find myself in the darkness of a shell.
Without walls,
Yet confided,
Without bars,
Yet I am binded.
Nothing but the utter darkness can I see,
Nothing in my reality is what is to be,
I feel nothing but the darkness around me.
Consuming me to the bone,
Still no direction to be shown,
Lost in the eternal darkness of the abyss,
Forever wondering blind in the mist.
As the night grows on from days to years,
An Eternity of time fills me with fears.
So as I open my eyes once more,
I beg again to be back on the shore,
Back in the horizon of the day,
I plead for my God to show me the way!
But still a lie alone in the darkness of the abyss,
Nothing but the screams of terror and agony that speaks to me with a hiss,
Yet the screams of silence falls upon the deafness of my ears,
Nothing seems to silence the terror of my fears.
Rivers of blood fill the oceans of my soul,
Perhaps never again shall my heart become whole.
So here I lie in this prison of the unknown,
A prison of darkness and death to be known,
Waiting patiently for the path of life to be shown
A path out of the darkness of the night,
A Path into the eternity of the light...
