ETERNAL NIGHT

Waking up,
My vision was blurry,
Or so I thought.

Looking around,
Darkness engulfed,
The stone walls invisible in the shadows.

Trying to find my way,
I couldn't even see,
I searched.

Making my ways,
Every single time,
The walls greeted me.

My heart skipped a beat,
I can feel my fast breathing,
I feel like going crazy

I yelled "help!" into the eternal night,
Echoes reverberating,
I feel lost in the dark.

Trying once more,
Don't want to lose hope,
Searched for the exit.

My eyes wander around,
Or so I thought,
Everything looked the same.

I feel..hopeless,
But I don't want to give up that easily,
I went for it again.

Every corner I went to,
Stone walls the only ones I found,
I gasped for air.

I can feel something,
Streaming down my face,
Warm tears flowed.

My heart shrank,
Trying to be strong,
Or trying to be in denial.

I asked myself,
How did I get into this mess?
What did I do to deserve this?

Then, there it was,
Playing in my mind,
My memories.

All the things I've done,
All the things you've said,
That was it!

I never thought of it,
The past come back to haunt,
Trapping me in its stomach.

Leaning against the wall,
Couldn't hold myself anymore,
I scream into the black.

Letting myself tear up,
Resting on the floor,
Sobbing like there's no tomorrow.

Or maybe there won't be,
I feel hopeless,
Rather dead inside.

I am stuck in this eternal night.
