We're sitting down,

In that place we always do,

Laughing and smiling,

Making jokes,

Eating food.


I leave that place,

Entering somewhere darker.

I look around.

No one is there.

I find the door and leave.


I enter a bright room,

A living room.

I see them,

The people I love,

Walking closer,

Wrapping their hands around my throat,

Pinning me down,

Seizing every last breath out of my body.

I'm falling into unconsciousness.

Darkness envelops me.


Everyone is gone.

I panic.

An explosion erupts,

My mind spiralling,

Exhaustion overtaking me.

I lay down,

Falling again.


I'm in my bed.

I cry.

Tears drowning my body,

Sorrow drowning my mind.

Constantly,

looking for an exit,

Physically and mentally.


Until I finally realise,

I'm all alone.


Alone . . .
