darkness consumes me,
my soul cries out,
icy fingers rip me apart,
exposing the fears within.
i dangle,
at the mercy of my fingertips,
my hold,
slipping, faltering, failing,
the rock crumbles,
and i fall.
the darkness swallows me,
my soul cries out,
the sound quickly ends,
as i fade away.
will you,
miss me now that i am gone?
this life,
painful, lonely, over,
it has won,
now i’m done.
my lesson learned.
