Deep Abyss

Deep Abyss

I teeter on the edge of
a deep abyss,
Calling to me
Heart to heart, love to love……

Control wrapping me 
With tightly held tendrils
Preventing the fall
My heart yearns for.

The call of love,
Beckons me to break the bonds
And fall into the silence.
The unknowing that my heart
Already knows so well.

I pull at the bonds
Only to discover my own fingers
Wrapped tightly around my heart.
Protecting, Controlling.
