SHH


Darkness arises in the depth of night

Creatures of the night creep silently out of their host

Whispers and Hushes fall against the wind swept leaves and pitch black trees

It sneaks up on you

screaming branches and rustling leaves

trampled by fear and anxiety

Caught in the arms of unwanted entities
 
undelightful scents and blacked out visions
 
awoken by the sense of not knowing the fear and nervousness burst through the door 
 
branding steel and and black nylon
 
hooded faces aproach
 
threats of the inevitable and much worse are shouted
 
dont struggle
 
dont move
 
dont scream
 
dont shout
 
dont think.....
 
mind shuts off like a tv after the remotes been pressed
 
no thoughts, no ideas
 
anxiety strucken and frozen in time 
 
minds clash 
 
whimpers and tears flood the air
 
nothing being said 
 
being heard outside from the trees 
 
from the winds
 
from the world
