The Abyss

by morgan6062

With arms flailing With heart dying I fell into the abyss No light there Only darkness and gloom It left my spirit crying Spiraling, spiraling Out of control My soul dead within my chest No one could save me Except God, who was silent Help is not coming So, I fall, ever falling Into the depths few can fathom Deeper into the abyss

Notes

The abyss I am speaking about in this poem is the abyss of depression. Everyone experiences depression in some form at least once in their lives. The kind of depression I am speaking of is major clinical depression. The pain, hopelessness, and helplessness of this disorder are overwhelming.
