Facing The Abyss - Poetry

________________




Great curious Unknown

Hidden in darkness

Provoking untamed fear

Terror of your unseen eyes


Panic roars ugly

Pinching at my nerves

Eating away

At the sides of my mind


A choice in the journey before me

Jump or hide


Your vibration calls me

I am breathless

I stumble


Then...


I fling myself headlong off the edge into the unending black of your acceptance...


Your arms if you have them


Your heart if it exists


Absolution of decision

No turning back


I am swallowed by expansion...my foreboding transforms...unnerving possibilities unfold before me


I am struck with wonder...falling deep into the Abyss of You


Your nameless face seeks the core of me


To uncover me

To evolve me


Inside out with fright...although enticed...my last reserves of defiance snuffed out by intrigue


Pulled...twisted...broken


Pain

Sorrow

Entrapment...I release into your depths


To seek

To explore

To find myself in Your eternal unknown...to see the Face of the Abyss, your thorough eyes staring far down into the me that is in You
