The Abyss
It is strange, always strange
The depth of fear, our soul, our pain.
To understand and to feel
Is to plunge in, to be real.
Yes and no, they are the surface
Of fearful lies and waters dangerous.
Feelings, truths, all bare to see
People, culture, family
Lie in a world deep inside
That many people fear to dive.
But I am different, so I did
I dived, I swam, I sank right in.
To resentment, and into darkness
A myriad of moments form an abyss.
I grow scared, I can not swim back
I am broken, alone, completely trapped.
Despite I speak in a different language
Through my essence, soul and strength left.
I feel a love of different kind
One that remembers my soul inside
For this abyss it understands
What we are and who I am.
