I am in the dark
I cannot see
I cannot breathe
Suffocating! Suffocating! Suffocating!
I panic
What is this?
What happened?
I cannot breathe
This is not how I wish to go
Not in the dark
Where I cannot see
Nor breathe a breath of sweet blissful air
With the warmth of the sun on my skin
Existing in the dark only
Knowing nothing else
But yet the feeling of overwhelming dread
Builds in my chest
I exist but I do not
I need the sun on my skin
The breath of life in my lungs
Not in the dark
I want to see
To breathe
To be
To be one with the abyss that I call home with the warmth on my skin
I do not wish to go back
To not knowing this bliss
With no quickening panic in my breath
