Mar 11
Abyss
Crushing depth around me
Cold runs just as deep
Darkness swirls in misty currents
Autoluminescence gives me hope
Self-absorbed and alone
40,000 feet in four hours
Sudden movement clouds all
Watery cacophony drenches the quiet
In liquid tremors
The fear is tangible when nothing else is
The abyss calls your name
Reaches out to your soul
And presses the life from you in a loving embrace
Wide eyed in your wake
Alone at depth is all I can take
Hold my hand
If you can find your way
It’s death in here
And never day
