they feel like they are falling
deeper and deeper
into an empty abyss
everyday a little deeper and darker than the day that passed
sometimes they float up
seeing a glimpse of the light they once basked in every second
those feelings are hollow shells of reminiscent memories once passed
they reach out their arms hoping
that anyone could help them back up
pull them just a little closer to the sun
but will it ever be enough?
will they ever be able to feel that bright warm feeling again?
or will they have to keep pretending
that they feel that way
seeking deeper and deeper everyday,
they wonder if it will ever be enough
will anyone ever care enough?
will they ever be enough?
can they get out of the abyss alone?
thoughts drone on, slowly turning out the silence
they close their eyes, hoping for peace in this dark abyss for even a second
why won't the thoughts stop?
they drift off to sleep, wondering when they will feel the warm bask of sun and happiness again.
