The Abyss
soulless
empty
darkness
vast as the ocean
heartless
numb
loneliness
deep as a canyon
pain and despair
gnawing at me
sadness overtakes my emotion
no more happiness
no more joy
black as night on my heart
thick and heavy in my chest
like a river raging out of control
slowly the agony
begins to take its toll
