Cast Down At Mercy's Feet

Thoughts that were tame and quiet, now unleashed wild and frantic! Python desperation squeezes at the throat! Heart pounding like a racehorse! Sweat forming perverse rivers seeking every crevice of the body. . Understanding and judgment once reigned, now pain's throne rules over reality. Darkness violates the light of the inner child of innocence. Hopelessness screams silently at the mind. A bottomless pit awaits to embrace misery. Life's sea tossing from one tragedy to another has ceased to exist. Suicide has claimed it's victim, cast down at mercy's feet.
