When darkness falls
I'm standing outside, staring at the sky.
A dark sky, with one bright ball of light.
Dark shadows, surrounding everything around me,
surrounding me, locking me in.
With nowhere to go, nowhere to hide.
With the darkness, swallowing everything it touches,
making it all disappear.
Slowly finding it's way towards me,
reaching for me, touching me.
I can't escape the darkness, that's eating me away.
I reach for the light, that's slowly fading,
but I can't reach it, I can't help it,
and it can't help me.
The darkness is taking over.
Slowly, everything becomes black.
I can no longer see,
nor feel, nor hear.
Everything is dark and quiet.
Is it all gone?
Am I now gone?
