in a bottle

it's a black bottomless pit into which i find myself floating idle stagnant with lost hopes and dreams never able to redeem or to grasp even the tiniest straw of reality unable to claw my way out i sink deeper and deeper into the vast darkness feeling lost and all alone never able to break those feelings of dispair always choking on the black stagnant air it's a cruel ugly world into which i find myself falling still i continue to fight looking for a handhold anything that will bring me out of the darkness and into the light but no matter how hard i fight it's always a losing battle when i live my life in a bottle
