Lonely

The wind howls at the moon
As it rushes a cold,
Sharp gust of air towards me.

I shiver,
Pulling my jacket closer into my body,
My hands hugging the inside of my pockets.

Standing on a small,
Narrow path alone;
I can hear the snapping of twigs,
And the rustling of leaves swirl around me.

As I walk closer to the edge of the path;
All light fades from view,
And is replaced with pitch black darkness.

Then silence.

Taking another step,
I can feel myself fall through a hole,
And into a box of solitude.

I am trapped.

With no one but myself,
And the whispers of despair.
