Crawling in the Dark

Death

whispers in her ear.

               So seductive, so

                                tempting.

To end it all before she even had a chance

                      to

begin.

She drowns in darkness,

it fills her

       until she is

blind and

deaf and

numb.

     She tries to

scream

                as her veins fill with the

                  fire

and

                  ice

of her emotions.

A thousand hands drag her down

deeper and deeper,

souls of the damned

pulling her back into the

                          Hell

she thought she

   escaped.
