My heart sinks and sinks lower
My brain is at a standstill, frozen over
Paralyzed with morose, I cannot think
But, I can’t afford this time I am losing
I have to go on, if I want to survive this trench
I take a deep breath, and dive in the deep end
Slowly the haze starts lifting from my mind
The wheels in my brain start moving again
I smile, looking back at my earlier state
First step had been the toughest one to take
Everything after that just led me on
On to the grail and far beyond
