Endless

Distraught we walk a ruined path directed out of sight.
Instability creates a forked road, instincts take the right.
Narrow becomes the path and you wish to turn around.
The path, it crumbles at your feet casting you to the darkened ground.
Falling, spinning, screaming, fearing the inevitable collision

With you body to the earth you have no decision.
Thoughts flash through your mind, images of your scattered soul.
High school, college, family, friends, flying as you fall down this hole.
The chasm, now black as night, engulfs the light around you.
No way to tell up from down, the fear completely surrounds you.

A thud, a crack, one final scream. Fear is no longer there
Nor hope, nor pain, nor joy, nor care, this path you have chosen to bear.
Death comes as sweet relief, the path of destruction is endless.
With one more dead, not a word can be said to mend this.
