little word thing

i fell into a hole
a while back.
it looked so warm and so dark.
and it was so dark it was bright
and i fell so heavy i was light.

my breath was a scream
later it whimpered
now we sing.

it's gotten too hot so shiver
shake - and it's dark and i glow
and the hole flows past
fast and smooth
grating so slow.

turns out it's nothing much
more than a hole.
