The Dark

Thu, 12/20/2018 - 11:39 -- AutumnM

My heart beats fast

It feels hollow

How long will this last?

My breath gets caught in my throat as I back away

I look around for others, everything is bare

How could I ask others to stay?

A dark voice whispers,

"Who would love you?"

Tears start to flow from my eyes

What could this mean? This had to be lies

My head pounded, my heart was sore

I held my head, please no more!

Shadows filled the room around me

Faces were made out in the dark

I screamed at them to stay here

I was alone and scared while my friends sneered

A tug hit my leg as I got pulled away

They laughed loud and had me shunned

My mouth got covered by vines of silence

No one could hear my cries

They walked away as I struggled

Therefore, breaking all ties

I was alone
