A step
Deeper
A loss of all hope
Too many times
I cannot cope
A step
Deeper
Believe decays
With each betrayal
Truths stench assails
A step
Deeper
The weight of loss
Pushes me down
Without a pause
A step
Deeper
Endless deceit
A slippery stair
Waits at my feet
A step
Deeper
Decaying trust
Chilling this ache
Pain so unjust
A step
Deeper
Darkness enfolds
I’ve reached the bottom
Empty and cold
A step
Deeper
I’m on the floor
Agonies tomb
Mine evermore
