I will not fall
                     down
                             down
                                    down
                                           Into that deep, impounding darkness.
                                 That sinking, violent pain that once consumed me.
                                             I am no longer a shadow of myself,
                                        A broken, sallow creature, lingering alone
                                    In the ashen wasteland of its everlasting night.
                                                          ­     I am not weak,
                                                           ­  I am not broken,
                                                         I am not insignificant.
                                                  ­        I am infinite in Him.
