The Abyss

 The Abyss


Just who am I anymore

A wasted opportunity 

Rusting remains in the rain

My basic needs forgotten


All I ever wanted from anyone 

Was to receive and feel their love

But now all I ever pray for is a

Sweet release into the abyss. 


Where light fades into dark

Where this becomes nothing 

Where sound echoes silent 

The abyss beacons me away from you


Despite my melancholy 

I know this isn’t usual

No chemical imbalance

Can explain you draining me


Somehow you always say and do things wrong

Making me ask what’s wrong with me 

I know the truth but it doesn't stop me

From jumping into the abyss


Where dreams awaken gone

Where we are you and I

Where love hates what it is

The abyss tries to shelter me from pain


Because you lack the ability to find

Happiness in any real way

You somehow manage to drain any joy

When just the thought of you approaching me

When I hear your name, or I see your face 

I retreat into the abyss


Where nothing is abound

Where substance is null

Where truth contains no proof

The abyss comforts and envelopes me


Where dreams awaken gone

Where we are you and I

Where love hates what it is

The abyss tries to shelter me from pain


Where light fades into dark

Where this becomes nothing 

Where sound echoes silent 

The abyss beacons me away from you
