Just A Step Away

We all are just 
A step away
From crossing 
Into a black hole 
The abyss
Of our conscious 
Where infinity 
Meets a terminable end
And the soul
Is lost 
To an insatiable 
Nightmare
That seduces
Our reasoning
Into a permanent 
State of insanity.
Thank you for your service
Your pain will not be
Forgotten
Nor the mission you attempted 
To execute.
No judgement here
Just a sadness 
That overwhelms all
Who knew you.
May your journey 
Through the sea 
Of the afterworld
Take you to calm water
Where your
Anchor 
Is peace
