Dead End...
I've hit rock bottom,
I can't get any further,
The rocks below are so inviting,
As the edge grows...
An abyss of darkness,
Seems my only firend,
Ever closer,
Drawing near,
Rockslides,
Gravel under my feet,
Excitment in the air,
It will finally be over,
The ends of the earth,'
This path clear,
Rubble and grim,
Sticky like tar,
Sinking further down,
Into the earth,
Six feet under,
Were I'll end up...
At R.est,
SO I.nviting
So P.eaceful,
Time is almost up.
Do I have any regrets?
Not off hand.
Not that I can think.
The quiet is unrealistic,
The hole far larger,
Rocks fall faster,
How is it possible?
A sound echos,
What was it?
A calling,
No one else here...
There it is again,
Closer now,
Where is it?
Up or down?
Above me?
Something moved,
Tiny black and brown,
High pitched.
Echoing,
Short and sharp,
Cutting my core,
Warning,
Who could make it?
Unwelcomed...
No,
Closer still,
Whistleing draws more sound,
Faster moving,
The Noise more often,
Bounceing,
Almost happy,
Just for me?
Confusion.
Rocks tumble faster,
Eyes peek down,
Into the Abyss,
Each stareing,
A duel,
Brown eyes,
To me they stare,
Abyss forgotten,
Do I know them?
A quick bark,
Wagging tail included,
Looking at me,
Pleading,
No more,
I'll try,
Abyss shakes,
Anger rises,
I slip and I slide,
No way out...
Forcefully moving,
limbs stiff or numb,
Sinking further,
Hand reaching,
Further and further dragged,
Far Away,
Blackness...
I wake up...
Brown eyes Stare,
I have something to live for...
