Despair in a pit
Looking over
Peering into it
Hope disappears
Heart plummets
It is real
Not surreal
Flailing
Down in a lift
Down the shaft
Darkness closes around
Light shut out
Hope found
Now dead
Where am I?
Who cares?
Shut off in despair
Down I go
Forever descending
Cannot face life
Something shines
Down in the deep
Down in the dark
Was it a trick ?
Salvation?
Found the shiny object
It is alvation
Knife in hand
Knife in heart
End of despair
