The hour grows near.
I've come to pass
better days.
Falling down,
heavy with despair,
I flail
desperately to
the nearest hold,
unmindful of appearance.
How far it seems!
How wretched I
must look.
They wait
on the other side,
taunting me,
flaunting love
and trust.
I cry in frustration,
as I am dragged
deeper
by the ones
I love.
