Into the chasm we

 

Into the chasm we

Without words fall

Floating in seas of discontent

A black void surrounds you 

A weak flickering light 

You are lost in the wilderness 

A prisoner of your tied tongue

Words thoughts and feelings left on the precipice

No push …no pull

I see you there your soul blowing in the wind

Cold and haggard 

Worn at the edges

Still not going to those places 

You have never been

Everything without

Lost  

Nothing held too tightly within  

You look 

To you I am not I

Who is it that you see

Into the bitter river of silent woe

You flail your arms 

Still you go

Head first driven by stubbornness

No delight in this loss

A lightness of body 

Nothing else to be found in the drowning pool

You believed you were wise 

Only you were full of self-deceit and lies
