Absurd 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.

Nice form and a good write every one is different on what they hit at the lowest point in the life. Glad to see your new works . Your friend Michael
