Sorrow
It feels like plummeting straight
To the bottom of a vast ocean
The waves are unbearably dark,
Like a long, unforgiving night
They crash back and forth,
Trapping everything
In the bleak, crushing vortex of life
Relentless pressure bears down,
A pair of fangs breaking everything apart
It feels like drowning,
Almost a watery grave
Tendrils of ocean wrapping around,
They'll never let you go,
Holding you in their dim embrace,
Forevermore
Your imagined prison is inescapable,
The emotion within you,
Insurmountable
