There is no up There is no down Can't catch my breath for I hear no sound A reach, a stretch Emptiness all that is left Engulfed manifesting a monster There's a belonging in being lost here A chasm of my own consciousness I've lost my sense The light has faded As will the thump; it seeks rest Hope's light momentarily breaks the dark Glimpses spark only to fade in the surrounding eternal cry Are the fallacious depths making mockery of life's eye Either truth or deception An answer beyond comprehension An inner desolation Embodied in dejection A shot in the dark left only to miss For I am in the abyss
