DEPTH OF RECOVERY

DEPTH OF RECOVERY

From the top of the den
I bring my humblest words
To raise you slowly out 
And above this dreadful pit 
Where the ladder I lowers
Is insufficient emphasis 
As ascending tears 
Labor my heart helpless
With each time 
You take a glance away
From the beam of recovery
The pit deepens 
Shrouding your values
