The Hole
Jan 25, 2022
In a hole I find myself
My breaths shallow
Darkness all around
Voices, drowning my soul.
I try and climb but fall
Redness pools around my body
Sneers pierce my ears.
I try once more
But in vain.
Cuts and bruises adorn my flesh
And voices grow stronger
My vision more haze
Days and nights, all the same.
Death or darkness I get to choose, they say
I would never survive.
My own hollowness crumbles my heart.
But I wanted to leave
For my heart’s wails
And I choose light, for the climb was mine
so were the wounds.
Maybe I would heal
Time, my judge.
