Void
Driven to a place no one knows
I explore the daunting emptiness
No light, no air, no sound
Just blackness all around
Totally void of any sign of life
Walking along searching for a light
I feel the empty space start to grow
Like a wildfire out of control
So I now stand in the middle of nothing
With only myself as my guide
Tripping and stumbling through the darkness
No way out, no way in as I regress
The blinding panic ensues
Taking with it all that's left of my sanity
Lost in the ever-growing catacomb
Stuck in the void forever
