Father! Help me. I am lay destitute in this cold abyss The glorious light from Your immaculate holy face is suffocated in the labyrinth of my black hole. Why have You betrayed me? Why have You forsaken Your child? For reasons of whose origin I know nothing of, Your embracing, loving arms have let me go. You have turned Your back. Lord tell me why the bitter tears streaming down my face are unseen and my wailing screams have gone unlistened by Your omnipresent Being? My burden is too great for me to bear, my chains bind me so that I am unable to move. I lay prostrate in grief and sorrow. The demons of my past haunt the emptiness of my mind. Blind, I lay on the floor as the whispers and taunts plague me like a never-ending madness. My ravished and molested body, lifeless and numb, wastes away in the putrid rotting pit. As the crushing depths suppress my soul, I can hear the whispers of Death. I feel his cold,bony hands as he entices me with peaceful lullabies that chill my burning soul. I can no longer resist such peaceful rest. No longer do I wish the bonds of Life to chain me in this Destitution. I feel the quietness of Death fill my mind The raging fire in my soul extinguished by cold numbness of Everlasting Silence. Alas! Only now can I see Your face Father. Only now does Your holy light fill my soul. Your loving embrace comforts my tormented being. Only now can Your soft hands wipe away my bitter tears. Dim ond yn awr,yr wyf yn brofiad heddwch tragwyddol. (Only now, I experience eteranl peace)
A depressed soul can is a desperate place…even for those whose trust is in the Lord. He understands. and is those who suffer even in the black hole.
