Over the Abyss
I should have known, Should have seen it coming.
I ignored the signs, I tried to embrace the light,
To live a good life. Only the darkness was too strong.
The shadows consumed my soul. I tried to fight back, only
I was too weak. All the difficulties I faced-
Try as I might, I could not overcome them. Darkness consumed my heart,
I started to lose my mind. All of my problems, I tried to hide.
The forces of darkness Had me in their sights. Though
I tried to fight back, I had no help. I could not embrace the light.
I was sent spiraling out of control. Though I was in its grasp,
I continued to resist. If I struggle for all eternity,
I'll still refuse to give in. I still have a will of my own.
It is not enough. Stuck in a prison,
Hanging over the abyss. I lost another life; I wonder
If I will be missed. My soul is up for ransom,
The price too high to pay. Help me, save me-
My life is undone. I lost this round
In the game we play. I missed the opportunities
To even the score. I strayed from the path
I was given, Lost in the wilderness-
Nothing forgiven. Whispers from the grave
Calling me home. My soul is lost, cannot be saved.
Lost in a vacuum Of time and space.
Screaming in agony, I am out of place.
Hanging over the abyss, Floating in space.
