Abyss
December 9, 2014
Crusted tears lining the seams
Shattered dreams cutting our feet
I tried to help you up
But there you went, slipping deep into the abyss
Hate, spite, filled with greed
These were not our dreams
You stood there screaming
From the inside out
Love, I- - I just couldn’t help
And there you went slipping, deep into the abyss
Where are we now?
Left only to darken ourselves?
Your bones are mangled
Your eyes stricken
Darling come to me
Please, reach for me
