    ~ Going Down Ms. Jarrell? ~
    Going Down?
        Doors open..
                  Watch your step! 
           Empty...
                                            Hollow shell...
                   Gated doors clang shut...
           Behind me...
                                                                     No Exit!
           Frightened...
                                                                           Down...
                                                                              Down...
                                               Down...
                                    Sinking!
                   Alone...
    Troubled...
                  Free Falling...
        
    Downward...
                  Crash!
       Pain...
    Sorrow...
        Despair...
    loneliness...
        Darkness..
            
             Void....
                 Invisiable..
                     Hidden...
    Can’t focus! 
                   Can’t see! 
         Wet...
                Raining....
                          Sprinkle...
    Torrential....
             Flooding!
                   No Rope! 
                      No help...
         No rescue...
    On my own...
                          Again!
    Light spotted!
    Run! 
       Faster...
         Faster...

           Faster... 
     
             Must catch up to the light! 
       Almost there...
    Trip...
    Fall...
    Light Fading...
         vanishing....
    Disappeared....
                                                Stumple forward....
    Going down?

    While going down, be sure to hold your breath so you can come back up to enjoy life.

    Interesting format. Was like the scramble to keep hold of the sanity. The way you wrote it really symbolized the agony of trying to hold on, until the grip is gone.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
