Abyss

Another poem by me.

Abyss

Darkness.
Engulfing, Enfolding, Embracing.
Sweet as a lovers kiss.

Pain.
Excruciating, Blinding, Sublime.
Delightful as summer rain.


Fear.
Rending, Crumbling, Encapsulating.
Something to hold dear.

Filth.
Nauseating, Vile, Disgusting.
Something to cherish with.

Tears.
Weakening, Shattering, Ruining.
The sum of our years.

Violence.
Spontaneous, Random, Unceasing.
Nothing can replace it since.

Illness.
Demoralising, Despairing, Undefeated.
Sweet, Sublime Bliss.


Love.
Warming, heartening, contenting.
Crushed like a dove.
