I hear those words
words that make my heart fall
fall into the darkness
darkness that threatens
threatens to overcome it
it brings me there when it falls
falls to the very point
point of no recovery
recovery from the dark thoughts
thoughts that fill my mind
now
and
forever.

This poem can be interpreted as anything you want it to be, but I personally wrote it after a breakup.
