...Untamed

By SolApathy

Into the abyss of a dark caressing emptiness I fall...
I wonder-- will I ever reach my demise?
Testing the limits of my futile existence
In antipathy of persistence
I offer no resistance
I ponder your insistence
Take another pill
 Climb back up this treacherous hill
I laugh in the echo chamber of empty promises you offer
I proffer
A counter to your hollow promises of dreams never to be
(At least for me)
Never will another pill I take
I break
Confines of the pill defined walls I was behind
I’ll fall deeper than the black hole’s maw
Escaping to the serenity of cosmic infinity
I feel real for the first time
In the epic diversity of an untamed… mind
