the Depth of Darkness

Floating beneath the tranquil see, teeming with insincerity
Impossible to fathom the depth of darkness submerged inside of me
Formless creatures in a lifeless sea that neither rest nor sleep
As imaginary tentacles invade the hallways where they creep
I cannot find myself in the shadows cast beyond the reach of light
So far down within my skin my soul knows no time of day but night
Where the only friend of loneliness shields itself behind blinding sorrow
With midnight steeped in fatal sadness for there'll be no more tomorrow
