Oblivion: I need a companion

My world, a never ending void,
I'm stuck in
my hole of oblivion,
I'm stuck in the belly of my own demon

I have no guardian,
I fight my
Own battles,
I'm my own champion,

But even in life
I feel like a
Banished alien
I need someone else

With me in this battle
With my own demon,
I need a companion
To get me out of oblivion.

my thoughts



This is my entry into @nicewoody69 contest themed oblivion. It ends in few hours time but if you feel you've got what's it takes to make a late minute entry, here's the link to the contest.

I wonder why my thoughts wondered to these words, I don't know the message my readers can pick from them, but if you like this poetic piece and think my shot for first prize is worth the try then I'd love to read your contribution/feedback in the comment box. Thank you.
