Fear
A bottomless pit with no definite impact.
The constant edge you sit on not knowing your left from right,
or up from down.
Everything is still, just as you're used to.
You then notice that suddenly your skin starts to tingle,
sending a shiver so powerful, your soul shakes.
Air escapes your lungs and every breath you take is met with forks and knives.
You're drowning.
The bottomless pit had tricked you.
There was no edge to sit on,
as the inevitable was about to happen.
The idea of " forever " leaves your mind slowly,
and you realize nothing is expected to last
..as the bottomless pit was no longer bottomless.
You want to give in, but then you remember what tool god has given you.
It's all in your head.
