conception
rock bottom
buried under heavy layers
of stones and gravel
a dangerous liaison with melancholy
breathing in poisonous dust from crushed impact
a heavy weight rests on the mind
has made itself too settled for comfort
but there must be a shifting of the light
inconceivable at first
gradual until life
becomes bearable once more
