In the deep crevasse of loneliness there is utter darkness A nothingness never experienced before Pained deeply I try and think happy thoughts but non avail themselves to me. I remember the losses and feel no warmth No arm around my shoulders No gentle voice to reassure There is a silent void No arm offered to pull me out No rope to hoist me back to hope No voice to let me no I am not alone I need to try and reach the surface it is such a long way How to find the strength seems all too much for me Find the inner self or die Find the love for life and thrive Find hope not failure I'll try
