If Darkness Is A Predator...

...Then That Makes Us The Prey.

Escape, was all I could think of as I sat alone in the dark.

Couldn't see, couldn't breathe,

Lonely as prey waiting to be caught by a shark.

It was useless, trying to get away.

Pain took root in my mind as I wished to be free.

Something in me twisted as I thought of

Everything that could never be.
