Dark cries

21 5 3
                                    

I stay still,

not moving.

It's dark,

and I hear noises.

I hear cries,

and screaming.

It's terrifying to

listen to them

all.

I hear 'why'

and 'please'.

I hear 'love'

and 'back'.

I hear 'stay'

and 'you'.

I feel warmth,

and hands.

I see black,

but my heart

is blue.

My grip is

strong,

I won't let go.

I feel drops

of water draw

on my face.

The tears

of sadness.

I keep my

eyes close,

unable to

open them.

I drift away

to a world

that stays dark.

I miss everyone's

faces, and smiles.

It's all gone,

and I can't

reach back

for it.

It's all gone,

and so am I.

Everything is

black forever,

and I may

never see colors

ever again.
