Dark
Oh so

So very dark
Piercing

Blackness
Intangible

Sight
Lost
No feeling

Oh where, where?

Confusion

Turmoil
Lost

So very lost
Where, where?

Nothing
Cold

So cold

Shivers and

Trembles


Crying


Weeping
Cold and fear and blackness
All slowly melt away

To nothingness

I wrote this during a depressing time in my life, when I was falling back into some old habits.
