I'm so deep I hit the floor
here's where continents rise
I'm practically the bottom
but I mean the opposite
Sea stars and squids
pretty little invertebrates
are the only things here
'cause no light shines at all
I'm freezing without being frozen
and tough enough to crush
They thought I was the end
till they found my friends

Hello and welcome to the ocean floor! I'm not the deepest but I'm nearly there. My name is Abyssopelagic. I'm also called the Abyss or Abyssal. My name in loose greek means no bottom!
