Void

Darkness

A tunnel with no light

A black hole

The great Maw.

Consuming but never satisfied.

Anger wells.

Desperation and pleading go unanswered.

Hunger grows.

Down the hole I go.

Falling
Farther..

Then…

I….

Ever…..

Imagined.

There has to be a bottom, right?

Right???

Crushing anxiety grips me and pulls me further in.

I look up.

I LOOK UP!

There, above me, darkness consumed, but for the faintest of lights.

I reach up, grasping, fighting the pull…

Reaching with all I have to grasp at that light…

Just out of reach.

Yet, I reach.

And even though I can’t grasp it, I hold onto it…

HOPE.
