[bodytext] => I hear the sounds echoing into the dead of night. I can feel nor sense anyone there for me. My silent cries fall on deaf ears. I see the shadowed figures dodging in and out of view. None stay to stand beside me. I hear their faint whispers bouncing from the shadows. Yet none come out and talk to me. I know they hear my cries going out to them, but none listen to the pain in the cries. The small shadows start to grow and surround me, I cry to the shadowed figures. They do not even hear me anymore. The darkness stiffles my pleas. I can't escape the dark. Will no one help to release me? I wish the shadowed figure would come to me. Will no one shed a beam of hope upon my anguished soul? I can't take the darkness anymore. I fear the cold darkness, but I fear facing it alone more. I jump into the dark, it is all gone. I have jumped into the dark, never to return. I am dead.
