Return to Oblivion

I feel the pull, resistance is futile
My reprieve temporary, I lived in denial
Sucked towards that hole
With dizzying speed I fall

There where air fears to enter
And breath refuses to stir
Darkness not an absence of light
But a thick fog suffocating my sight
Voices do not go beyond my head
Yet there was a time I wasn’t scared

Laughter subsides
Tears recalled into my eyes
I dread that call echoing from each wall
Now as cold as death
Like a nervous bride hesitant in each stride
Eager to please her fate
I slowly walk round the pyre
Shimmering and decked in my final attire
A farewell smile for the one
And I return to my oblivion
