suddenly

when it happens

at all

it's sad

and aching

but when it happens

all of a sudden

it's worse

it's like a

quick fall

into chilling water

all of you trembles

as it immobilizes you

all you can 

think to do

is strike back

no! it isn't so!

as you try

to catch your

breath 

but can't

then you cry

deep sorrows of tears

that you've kept in

to be brave

all this time

the flow doesn't stop

when you want it to

it spills out

in common conversation

or when you're 

pretending to be sane

the shock from 

the memory

weakens you

and all you can think 

to do 

is escape it all

heading to some place

where there isn't any 

pain

some place where

there isn't any sorrow

some place there isn't any

you 

and your brain

fretting over and over

again

about the darkness that

came suddenly

over nothing at all
