Claustrophobic.

It's a sense of darkness that I'm familiar with

Not so much in a sense of comfort, just simply envelopment.

Swallowed by it.

It’s like staring into a black hole this formless, unending abyss

but it goes beyond dread, it becomes an empty acceptance,

a dark surrender.

Beyond the surface I’m dragged down into airless oblivion

Begging to be awash of violence

Dream ether in silence

Erode the senseless comfort

Drowned in abyssal reckoning
