Black Abyss

Up the Cliff

    Steeped in sorrows, I climb and climb-

No crying is the only rule

But as the cliff gets taller and taller,

I realize I am a fool

    Closer to tomorrow,

A better day will come,

But as the rainbows dissipate

I hear an endless drum

    Thumpity, thump, I slip and fall,

The stressed out drum still playing

I have never been religious, but

I find myself now praying

    I try and try, tears escaping,

Bloodied fingers crawl

I must reach the top, no matter what,

But I fall at pressure's claw.

    I crawl back up, my mind unraveling-

My sobs leave a darkened stain

My bloodied fingers bloody more,

For I am stuck in failure's game
