Abyss
Facing the Abyss
Gazing into the opaque void of non-existence
Realizing the meaninglessness of life
No longer hearing
Your words of encouragement
No longer feeling
Your warm presence
Mind unable to free itself
From the urge to negate
Unable to silence
The internal dialog which retells
Ceaselessly
The Failures, the mistakes, the broken dreams
Swimming in a sea of anxiety
Believing myself blessed
With the unique clarity to realize
The emptiness of existence
Certain beyond reason
Biologically determined not to see
That it is me
And not the world
Which is broken
I step into the Abyss
