Hope's POV
It swells around
the bleakness, surprisingly calm
my head pounds
barely able to see my own palm
inches from my face
It taunts,
crashing down around me,
the thing I know that haunts,
the past, present, future, chases for me,
a place family tried to keep me from.
The sound of emptiness,
all the while deafening,
quite plenteous,
filling the room, threatening,
lurking in the dark,
threatening to leave their mark,
upon my soul.
I don't know how long I have been here. I am going insane. I keep wondering how Freya and Keelin are doing, my mind always finding it's way back to Josie, somehow. I held the locket close. In here, I feel so alone, not the kind of alone I enjoy. The darkness all around me is crushing, but a part of it is being weakened by me. I've realized in how long I've been in this god forsaken place, that I am poisoning the darkness, Malivore, and I haven't succeeded in killing him, as I haven't had my vampire side activated, so to speak. This has been a waste of time, on everyone's part, and I am ashamed. But I have kept him at bay, so for that I am thankful. I fear that may not be forever, unfortunately. Lately, I feel like I'm in the it of the stomach, of this pit of endless darkness, and Malivore keeps dry heaving, hoping I might just be spat out. I can't have that, and it will certainly take a lot more to regurgitate me, my friend. As for Josie, I'll wait for her til the end of time, I'll never give up on her no matter what, not that she knows me or remembers me anyways. I'll sit and wait in this pit til the end of time, as long as those I love are safe.
Oh! And did I mention the lurking crazy fucking things? Yeah... I threw Clarke in the pit with me... he's one of the things lurking in the bleakness, trying to get to me. I just hold onto the locket and everything will be alright.
