Proverbial Rock Bottom
Saying there is a rock bottom
Absurd to me
One well versed being in pits
I never felt rocks beneath
Hitting rock bottom
Different for each
You might sink down
To a sandy beach.
But that would be
To easy a fate
To be in a pit of hell
And only scathed
On the way down
Rocks of hate
Ripping the soul
Self inflicted as you know
But the sandy bottom
Please don't tell.
It's my secret, I only attest
That it is cold.
