I'm Scared

The dark abyss of the end
surrounding those that are weak,
has found me.
A hole so deep,
I can't get out.
A hole so wide,
others avoid it.
Darkness surrounds me
like black satin
that tightens when I move.
It makes breathing difficult.
It makes living painful.
I just don't know.
I guess it's my uncertainty,
my false cheerfulness
coming back to bite me.
~
The monsters are out to get me,
but I'm one of them.
I'm scared,
for the first time
~
I think of the claws
that dig deep into flesh,
Sharp and bloody.
I think of the teeth
that rip flesh off of bones,
sharp and angry.
~
I hear them,
each footstep unique.
Creaking wood,
snapping twigs,
crunching leaves.
I don't just believe,
I know.
They're coming for me.
The voices that I once held inside
escape in a scream.
It shatters the glass
and the walls
and my peace of mind.
~
My paranoia is getting worse.
I know they're coming.
Coming for me.
I know it.
Do you?
~
WRANGLED TORTURED BODY FOUND IN ISOLATED SHED.
~
Blood slides down the walls,
dripping onto my dead body.
My eyes have seen the devil itself,
but now they see nothing.
lifeless,
they made me.
Lifeless.
And now I lay cold in my own blood.
I was afraid.
You should be too.
