Rising From Abyss

A velvet drape where starlight fails, The yawning maw where silence trails. An edge unseen, a whispered dread, Where paths dissolve and hopes lie dead. A plunge unsought, a sudden fall, Into the depths beyond the wall. No guiding hand, no steady light, Just echoing voids and endless night. The weight of years, a crushing stone, A hollow ache, a heart alone. The phantom touch of what has been, A landscape lost, a fading scene. Where shadows dance and memories blur, And whispered questions never stir. A silent scream, a frozen tear, The chilling truth that nothing's near. Yet, in the dark, a flicker glows, A fragile spark where courage grows. A whispered vow, a rising breath, To find a path beyond the death. For even in the deepest night, A hidden strength ignites its light. And from the abyss, a soul may rise, To paint new stars on empty skies. ©bfa031525
