Dark Thoughts

I spiral down a slippery slope
Entwined as I descend
I’m drowning in a kaleidoscope 
As My mind begins to blend

Swallowed as Im consumed 
As I sync into the abyss
Left as hollow as a vacuum 
Neither extinct yet nor exist

Falling down this  internal funnel
All life is drained from inside
Like crawling down an eternal tunnel 
But no sight remains to guide

Condemned, I see a rope 
I hold it tight but it’s just another chain
I see an end, is it hope
I see a light, it’s not, it’s a train
