the abyss

four definitions;
they were all different
in meanings

yet they all led me back to you

1. a deep or seemingly bottomless chasm

loving you
was an
endless pursuit

2. a wide or profound difference between people

the gulf between
you
and me;
us

because of
the fortress i've built around myself
walls that pushed you away

3. the regions of hell conceived of as a bottomless pit

you were satan's dark abyss

loving you was
a never ending cycle of reaching
the euphoric dawn
and falling back into
the melancholic dusk

4. a catastrophic situation seen as likely to occur

i placed myself in peril
as i overlooked the hazards
and headed straight into a path of destruction

for i was so fascinated with the way
you were both the most beautiful of dreams
and the worst of nightmares
