Poem My Hole

My Hole

There is a hole inside of me
I think it's been there as long as I've been alive
inside hidden but so so near 
it can never disappear
The hole is dark and black
With no beginning and no end
It gets bigger and bigger as time goes on
It touches everywhere there is
It touches every one there is

I am afraid it's getting too big now
I feel like it's going to swallow me up
I will never find my way out
As
we know I cannot shout
I cannot scream 
I cannot dream
I cannot hope
Maybe
this is where I belong?
In the big black hole
Maybe this is my home after all?
In the big black hole
Maybe I will be better there?

That's where they all want me to go
The hole is catching up to me
I cannot run anymore
I cannot cry
I just want to say goodbye
So I will let it catch me
Then I will be where I belong
Me and my hole will be one forever
