The abyss

It yawns in front of me

I watch others falling in....

.... dragged down by overwhelming sadness

.... and endless pain

I reach out to you...

I'll not let you fall

I've only just found you

..... don't give in

... don't let yourself fall

Hold on to whatever you can

.... you can do this

Just hold on to the hope

..... dream of tomorrow

Life can be better....

... you said that to me

and you stopped me from falling

.... falling into the abyss

Now... I do that for you

Don't fall.... hold on.... don't fall
