To think pain; to remember, torment; but to consider the future - more than I can bear. If my suspicions prove correct, then I am lost indeed. For what woman of fallen character has ever survived the blow?
And where is the one who led me there, who held the draught of my lips saying “drink, drink.” He has found another whom dally, and I would warn her but I am mute beside him. My words would fall on deaf ears.
A single moment of joy can slake the throat of a dying spirit. An act of kindness, no matter how small, becomes a mercy drop from heaven. Where are these drops? Where is my joy? Each moment is consumed by fear and trembling. My angst weakens me, body and should. Where will I turn for peace?
Of all my sins, one stands out above the others. That I ever took my first breath. My foolishness will soon be seen. What is whispered in the darkness will be shouted in the light. Cry shame! You are defiled. Away from me, daughter of sin. Their vices haunt my dreams. Soon they will fill my waking as well.
