A Place Called the Abyss

Voices of darkness drown out the light Old thoughts and visions are reborn I am a prisoner of the utter abyss Darkness surrounds me day and night Outside of my being, there’s no trace of light Faceless beings bombard my mind Loud screams torture me constantly I am married to the unknown Gaps and of time doesn’t exist here Hours, minutes, seconds are foreign too Time is irrelevant in this placed called abyss 12/08/2021 Contest: “A” FORMS NEW ONLY Sponsor: Constance La France

Reads like a good contender to me for the contest. Way to go. I can't imagine what that will be like, but it is not a place I would want to go, and I am thankful that I have a choice. Your visit to my page was encouraging. Sara

A thought provoking write dear Alexis, this Abyss feels like a very lonely place to be even a little close to. It seems unkind, and unfair, you deserve a lot more! Good luck in the contest, lots of kisses, blessings and love, JENNIFER.
