The moon is calling my name
Into the deep
Dark night.
I here his voice
Echo through the
Woods.
A faint whisper
In the wind.
Everywhere I look,
It's all the same.
I can't tell up from down
Left from right
Forwards and backwards.
His voice engulfs me
Like the ocean waves engulf a child.
I feel alone.
I feel lost.
I feel unprotected.
Scared.
Sad.
Depressed.
Misplaced in this
Cruel
Dark
Realm
Of nothingness.
I think that's what gets me.
The nothingness.
The emptiness.
The loneliness.
The darkness.
The moons light turned off
Like someone hit the switch.
My surroundings disappeared
As if it were all
A figment of my imagination.
And then there was just nothing.
Like before
But worse.
Way worse.
And now I'm just floating.
I just let this nothingness
Engulf me.
Engulf me like the voice I heard.
Engulf me like the ocean waves engulf a child.
Engulf me like my emotions do every day.
I mean I was bound to fall someday.
And I guess today is the day.
