Abyssus: deep| sea; abyss; hell| infernal pit; bowels of the earth; primal chaos; chasm

This is the place where darkness lives
A melancholic void
Barren of the slimmest of hopes
Full of empty people
With gaping holes inside their souls
And yet such a lonely land it is
Helpless we are inside
An agonizing existence that'll make you want to die
Worthlessness, guilt, and lies you'll be fed
Intrusive thoughts will fill your head
Busy trying to not completely fall apart
And useless attempts to stop your bleeding heart
It will consume you
It will work to convince you that you won't make it through
The map can be hard to read
The maze is confusing
But with effort and help and time
Eventually you will see the signs
And the exit finally near
I know it's strange to hear
It is not inescapable
I know you are capable
I believe in you
You should too
