I've fallen into a deep hole There is darkness...no light The darkness seeps in deep into my soul I scream Scream yet noone hears noone I feel fear Fear is what brought me here in the first place This place of silence I've fallen from grace Noone can save me now Because noone can hear I've fallen...into the depth of despair The depth of my despair is a lonely place Just silence and darkness Just a void in a piece of lonely space Darkness falls over me Like a blanket Covering me whole Covering my spirit, my heart, my soul I'm empty now I'm all alone In the darkness I lie In the darkness I cry Still noone hears I'm all alone with my fears Alone in the dark lying Alone in the dark crying |

An interesting read, A chaotic delving into darkness, of which I don't dread, but my blanket is starkness, a void. enjoyed the feel of your words. Gloom |

MyTracieFriend~ Very different style from my little friend. The dark would not consume you, for your light of kindness shines. Depth here in this piece from you. What a sheer joy to see you grow in your writing. Big ole' hugs to you this morn. Love ya', gal. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Your words take me back in time. Depression can be a good thing...sometimes...for a little while. As long as you've still got control over that blanket! "When the walls close in around you, When all those about you doubt you, When the world can live without you, Get a grip get a grip and keep it." -H.R. Tony the ones who don't do anything are always the ones who try to put you down - Henry Rollins |
