rock bottom

finally hit rock bottom
and found myself
on a mountain top
what a glorious dark underworld
full of carnal delights
hugging myself in the shadows
take the plunge
anything to avoid the inevitable
soaring skies looming in the cold waters
full of carnal desires
whispers of delicate memories
haunt you until you are gone
those old wisecracks bursting through
and just for a moment
you understand what compassion means
you witness the disappearance
of all the love you ever had
fading away into nothingness
where the rivers bleed into one
