My Abyss

As I went along that day
'Twas darkened then you'd call my name
My excitement understood, meet
Your passion say I should.

I bolted out that creeking home
To meet you where I would…
Misfortune told I should choose
To leave or persuade (day-by-day).

Nay! Leaving is definitive, I had
Exclaimed. Fighting my abismal
Perception I did exclaim. To
Fill that void I went away.

The next day friends we were.
Still shaken by my fear to
Conquer that great figure...

Ten years away. To no one
Else I will exclaim. I bit
My tongue and lost my way.
