Downward Spiral

A bitter glimpse at a future nearer then we'd like to think.

Circling, circling

round and round,

sinking further

down and down

 

deep into darkness

empty of light,

to depths untouched

by even the night;

 

deeper we fall

into nothing, its true ,

pealing back the pure shell

that sheltered us two;

 

as death takes his hold

and the world starts to burn,

shock scars faces of all

who find it their turn,

 

until nothing remains

except for a void:

This road we have followed

till all’s been destroyed.

Like walking on the bogging mud of Nam, asking yourself if it was worth the sweat to have gone so far...

Somehow I believe we are being surrounded and soon the wagons will be circling closer and closeer....

Be always safe,

Edward.

This reminds me of falling into a well, one that we have dug outselves into. Wonderful analogy.

A strong voice and a compelling write.
