Terror

by Cymbre Dolphay

darkness advances on me
i try to fight its pull
but it is like water
and it falls from my fingers
there is nothing to hold it off
nothing to shield me

it invades my heart, my very soul
with it near i am a prisoner
trapped within its sinister ways
each beat of my heart
brings me fresh torturous pain
and i have no means of escape

this evil that consumes me
is what i fear more than any other
for i cannot flee from it
it will never go away
this is what's so terrifying
the fact that this evil is me

I know this feeling. My evil went away the day I rendered it nothing. It's not exactly ignorning, nor is it simply not acknowledging it. I just went about my day as if it no longer existed, and so it was.
