THE DESCENT

Down the cliffs I go,
No one around me for miles
The salty air hits me hard,
There is silence, except for the roaring sea
Accompanying it all the while,
There's no fear in my heart,
A strange feeling has swept over me
The world has gone to dust,
With no future, no past
Leaving me in the wilderness,
And down below the surging sea.
Going over the barren cliffs
Walking for miles my feet are sore,
my hair has fallen like cascade around me.
All my clothes are shabby and torn.
Dust has fallen, the sun has gone
Darkness surrounds me in the eerie web.
I stumble along, making my way
Through the narrow ridges and clefts.
I am weary, So's my soul
I don't know where I'm heading
Darkness and gloom looms ahead
I'm apprehensive, but I don't care
About what I face or how I'll fare.
