Desperate

The screams echoed all around her,
Tormenting, haunting in a voice she can hear,
Screaming things in her ear,
Afraid to move forward,
Always looking toward,
She felt her insides squeeze,
It’s not a simple breeze,
Blood was all she saw,
It was the last straw,
His voice inside her head,
She was misled,
Desperation settled in,
This was the beginning.
