The abyss
Who of you will follow
where I’m bound to go?
None that I can see.
None that I can name.
No-one that I know.
I don’t know why,
but this is surely so.
I must venture forth
into the bleak abyss
entirely on my own.
Something tells me
that you’ll thank me,
if or when I do return,
for treading where
you dare not ever go.
