Overtaken

blindsided
caught off guard
pain swirls to the depth of the soul
deeper deeper deeper
implanting in the tender ground of feeling

pulsing
tenacious
refusing to release its grip
tighter tighter tighter
even when reason valiantly tries to intervene

aching
constant
sending roots deep, intertwining
growing growing growing
unwilling to let tears loosen the knot

tunnel
vision
unable to see another way
searching searching searching
uproot the quickly growing weed

breathless
choking
have to gain perspective soon
grasping grasping grasping
unable to let go of the pain

sorrow looking for release...

something tells me that this won't be fixable by eating chocolate....

So, um, care to give details? I take it you're in sorrow and pain.
