Darkness
Everything is black.
It is the light you seem to lack.
You feel completely at peace,
Like all your problems have ceased.
You aren't having to make any choices,
Or hear all those annoying voices.
You're just able to rest.
This feeling is the best.
You suddenly hear a noise,
It sounds like a creature with no poise.
It sounds like a loud crash,
As if someone is making a dash.
The footsteps seem to be getting closer,
While the person tries to become sneakier.
You open your eyes
And to your surprise
There is a stranger staring at you.
You try to think what to do,
But before you can
He reaches out his hand.
You see something gleaming,
You surely think you must be dreaming.
You try to get a look at his face,
But he's just moving at such a hurried pace.
He rushes forward
While you try to move backward.
You back against a wall,
That doesn't stop him at all.
His movements are so fast,
These images are your last.
All you will now witness
Is a horrible darkness.
This darkness is never ending.
For this problem has no mending.
