Inner Self - part 1

by SubtleHippo - Gemini

A tortured soul he is, staring into the dark abyss
Where once was light, the power of darkness now holds on tight
An outlook so bleak, so full of pain, will this soul ever breathe again
The darkness is all around, all knowing, all seeing
It's dark, dank power is consuming his being
Battered and bruised, with no hope in sight
All he sees is pain, and he kneels 'fore it's might
With nought to look forward to but more abuse and pain
He says to himself "never again"
He stares into darkness, and feels it embracing
Blood flows fast, heart beats racing
With nary a glance to the life left behind
And nowt in the space that once was his mind
This weary soul doth bid farewell
As he embraces the mighty darkness of hell

Reason for writing:

    Inner turmoil
