Every time you descend,

caught in that gravity of Darkness, that

lifeless void empty of all but sadness,

I wait helplessly above, in the light of living, knowing if I

pledge a hand of

succor, you sink ever more. It’s your desperate

eyes, don't you see?

    This is sad, powerful and beautiful, Ward. I have no experience with epilepsy but can only imagine how it feels. Well done on this entry. I hope this places.
