In the hole.

Crying.

Bleeding.

Dying.

The darkness is blinding.

Suspended from the ceiling,

Blood dripping, tears raining.

The silence is killing.

Drip. Drip. Drip.

Pain is overflowing.

Time is unrelenting.

 

Reaching up to grasp the strangling snake.

My breathes are strained.

Beginning to suffocate.

Pulse is racing in my neck,

Head is throbbing with ache.

Death is lurking.

Death, my love, please take me away

To another plane.

 

Waking up.

Screaming, sweating, leaking fear

From every pore.

I run out, blanking on proper thoughts.

Rush into the bathroom and wash my face,

In prayer that the nightmare be gone.

Inside the mirror

And reflecting my fear,

 Is the me once pleading for death.

 

In the horrors once more,

My conscious still blanking.

The walls are nearing as my skin begins crawling.

Catching my breath, the fear is overwhelming.

I stare up at the ceiling as darkness encloses,

And find myself glaring back.

His glazen eyes and stiffened corpse,

Speak of insufferable pains.

The dangling body,

Begged for its eternal rest.

Blue in the face, was he,

And bloodied along the back,

A simple snow white corpse

Once thought to be a creature from my past.

 

Paranoia screeching, telling me

It’s all a dream.

But the sight is too real, the pain as unbearing,

I had witnessed my own demise.

I push to the walls, panic is setting,

My mind is racing, all thoughts useless.

Death, my love, let me not be forgotten.

 

The darkness enshrouded me,

The space began spinning.

Insanity began settling,

And my nerves began breaking.

I wake up once more, sobbing,

In a puddle of rancid urine and sweat.
