Drowning

The abyss is gazing back at you someone wiser would remember not to LOOK. Night grabs the breath from her lungs filming them with frost the skin takes a blue like tint the last of the breath entangles across her lips. Spider web frost. It grabs onto the night, and creates a mist. Our eyes meet, red wild eyes laughing, sneering, knowing. Watch me, watch it, freezing time in this moment of never. She wanders the wasteland of heartbreak where she has been left. left her here to breath in the grays and the blues upon the teeter totter. Straight into madness. You can hear the laughter can't you? Yes, you can. No, you are not crazy, no not yet my sweet. But soon you will be ours, you will belong to us. The abyss watched me, I watched it, in the never ending depth echoed the sounds of our madness.
