Can it be described?
An emotion? A feeling?
I describe it
My awareness.
My senses are painfully
Awakened by his presence
The hairs on my arm
Are risen, and tensed
The bitter taste at the
Back of my throat
Becomes nauseating.
I hear screaming,
It is unsettling
Yet filled with release
Consciousness has become
My worst nightmare
Darkness has engulfed me
Embraced me
Given me a new home
But I still hear the screams
Are they mine?
