Again i sit at the bottom of this deep dark well...even deeper and darker since i tried to climb out
The monster memories still line the sides....quiet if left undisturbed...but the ones i disturbed now clamor about the bottom...tormenting and berating me endlessly
Above me i can see a faint glimmer of light and hear voices
Calling out is futile no one hears me...no one knows i am here...an empty shell that resembles me walks amongst them
i open my mouth to scream but no sound comes out...it only echos endlessly inside my head
i am so tired but i dare not close my eyes to sleep...the monster memories will invade my dreams and devour me
i make them an offering of my blood...but it dosen't appease them even for a moment...not anymore
i try to escape inside my head...but the only place deep enough to offer sanctuary is so very dark and steep that i am afriad i will fall and never get back out
There is no safe place...no peace...not here
i must gather my remaining strength and courage ...and try to scale the walls over the memory monsters again
But what if i fall again...yet deeper...i don't know if i am strong enough to survive that...i am so tired and so cold
But i can't stay here ...i CAN'T...i must try..i must
