The difference between despair and complete despair

Get ready, because this is 100% poetic. Okay: Think of a building for this one. If the building suddenly loses a support beam and will collapse unless something takes the place of that support beam, that's despair. Complete despair comes from when there's nothing missing from the building, but it's going to collapse anyway.

See, you can do something about despair. Complete despair, you just have to get the heck out of that building as soon as you can, because there's nothing you can do to fix it.
