Fear Consumes

Darkness all around

As you walk the long corridors

And wish that someone

Would make the nightmares go away

But they remain a burden

To carry with us

They feed off of fear; our fear

And as you walk

You see a child

They run laughing

You chase after them only to see horror

That child is you

You see yourself

And realize that you

Had been chasing yourself

You look at your hands

And see them fading thin

You scream for help

You cry and plead

But no one will hear you

Fear has consumed you
