eternity

just read it!

Eternity
wandering through darkness grope,
finding not a glimpse of hope,
fingers touch to find my way,
each step down, my heart betrays
a fear that drives me through the day.

suddenly the ground is lost,
flailing arms as a body's tossed,
splashing in a crimson pool,
a warm embrace is much too cruel,
I curse this lowly, wretched fool.

Floundering in this self-made hell,
warmth increasing as i dwell,
within the confines i create,
screaming at myself, berate,
giving in to this, my fate.
