You told me about the pit
You told me how it gives you comfort
You told me it has always been around.
That place you call home,
It sounded intriguing
I wanted to know more
That pit of yours,
I asked you to show it to me
I wanted to get inside.
You lifted the cover for me
I saw how it draws people in
So I allowed.
Now that I’m in here
I wonder if I should have shouted,
If I should have brought in the rope.
Now that I’m in here
I know that a pit is a place to visit,
Never a place to stay in.
