Abyss



I sink
unstoppable,
no hands
to sustain
this heavy
burden.

My winds
turned away,
the air is
chilly and dry.

I carry
shame
to the abyss
for all eternity,
alone.










Author notes

Romancing the wind is utter foolishness and failing is disaster.

    Powerful write, Allan. I liked the last stanza the best.
    It conveyed powerful emotion and seemed to express a feeling of loneliness. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest.

    As far as I can tell, you are afraid of spending your entire life with no accomplishments. Well I don’t think that’s true this poem isn’t like you. To me it seems defeatist. Well done!

    Love,

    • Thankey. How come nobody asks for my best fears? Much more interesting, kinky, too.

        OK, I'll be the one

        What are your best fears? (no word limit)
        • That hundreds of beautiful women will force me against my will to chose my top 50, that will dote on me for the rest of my natural life. What a bitch deciding those last 3 or 4 positions would be!
