Darkness

As darkness descends, I cry in agony

Grey skies look down upon me

Fear engulfs my little soul and I

Yell into darkness, hollow channels.

My screams transcend life and light,

No knight in shining armor saves me

I die alone, fragment by fragment.

Piece by piece my death unites.

A deep pain pierces my heart

Of the sights I cannot appreciate

For life blooming, trees swaying are

Gone, affairs of the past.

“Save me”, I implore in vain.

Dark fumes consume me, tear me apart.

Slowly, I relieve my fear, accept my fate

I die today but my fear dies with me.
