In the Cellar

Despair Keeps You There

Down the stairs

Into a deep

Dark depression

In the earth

In your soul

There you will stay

Shrouded in a veil

Intricately woven

By the spiders

Creeping in the corners

Of your tortured mind

Caught in the tangles

In the webs of deception

You are left

An empty husk

A scientist by trade, but a creative at heart. One novel in progress with too many other ideas taking up space in my head. Some of those ideas end up here.
