The Abyss

I stare into the abyss
Vast black pit of despair
I turn my head and walk away
I simply do not dare

I walk along the edge of the pit
Across the endless sands
Wondering where I can stop
Where I can take a stand

Under a dead sky
Filled with the decaying light of forgotten stars
Frozen landscape filled with decaying trees
Each reminds me of my scars

Weary of life I wander still
Through the desert, under the sky
Where I am going I know not
To find a destination I must try

Eventually I might find my way
Out of despair and into the light
Otherwise I fear that this may end
With nothing left of my life
