At Last

My heel lightly touches the floor

As I walk down the endless tunnel,

Screaming for help wherever my voice gets lost,

And running away from the loud distant voices

That only get closer and closer.


But then,

A gust of breeze,

Strong enough to knock me out,

Appears out of nowhere,

Sending dust flying around me,

Making me clamp my mouth

Until it stops.

And then...


Silence.


Chills run up and down my spine

As if someone I've been waiting for

Has finally arrived

And although I look back to only see darkness,

Darkness against darkness,

It has come.

It has come to take me away

At last.
