Preparation Meets Opportunity Poem by Jerry Silver

I hope you never understand what this feels like..
Where the mind and the body become two separate beings..
Don't help, just watch me wrestle with my conscience.
This is my world.. This is my nightmare.. My Hell.
I'm ripping myself apart..
Why don't you come back down?
Join me and give me clouded eyes to block this place from myself..
You were always my only hope.. And now you've left me to die here alone..
I'll never let you go.. I'll bring you back to spend eternity with me..
Take a downward spiral into my Hell..
I'll watch you tear yourself apart.
