Helpless
The chains
bound to my ankles
penetrate deeper
and
deeper
into the sunken flesh
of my once bare skin.
My pale body
radiates
against the somber shadows
of the abyss
as it plummets weightlessly into a
never
ending
darkness.
The desperation
of my quivering hands
break
the invisible threshold
that once struggled
to subdue them.
My nails
viciously
cruise down the sides of
my neck
with failed efforts to find
my voice.
Water
rapidly
pours into my lungs,
submerging
my unconnected thoughts.
I let out a muffled scream.
But no one
can hear me.
