Sinking into the sea of despair
into the dark waters
into the murky dismalness
into the chilly depths
into the bitter solitude
He struggled frantically to stay afloat
gasping at life
reaching for safety
He cried out for help
pleading for mercy
calling out for grace
The waves drowned out his cries
The roaring thunder rebuked him
The waters crashed onto him
The skies pelted him with rain
On the verge of defeat
he stood with eyes lifted up
and heart abandoned
On the edge of resignation
he cried out with muffled sobs
and sorrowful tears
With his strength gone, he gave up
allowing himself to be swallowed up by the sea
to succumb to the relentless beatings of the waves
to yield to the overwhelming hopelessness around him
And so he sank to the depths of the sea
forgetting his struggles and his pain
and he embraced the strange coldness
letting go of his hardships and suffering
At last he was free from the cares of the world
free from the life of emptiness
free from that meaningless existence

I can relate with your post.
Hi Dude,
You are never alone. When you surrender remember He is there. When you think nobody understands , He does. When you think nobody cares, He does. Remember the sparrow cannot be more precious than you yet He cares for them too.
