A dark empty void surrounds me
And consumes me in an overwhelming grasp.
It's choking me; I can't break free.
Fear freezes through me and I start to gasp.
The world is slipping away.
I start to scream but my voice is silenced,
Holding back what I want to say
Condemming me to a lonely sentence.
My tears dammed back; they do not fall,
For I fear the darkness will claim them too,
Leaving me with nothing at all...
Nothing to show for the sadness I go through.
