It’s becoming hard to see
I can barely move at all
I wonder when I’m going to fall

The darkness is surrounding
My heart starts pounding
I wave my hand in front of my face
But I can’t see it moving or in place

Darkness swallowing me whole,
Eating up my mind and my soul
I can’t find any one in the never-ending night
Not a single soul, not even a little bit of light

The darkness is all around,
Making me fall to the ground,
Pushing me so I fall down,
Laughing at my frown

The frown that I can feel but not see,
Because darkness is all around me
It leaves me all alone,
I’m all on my own

Nothing but darkness
And all of its blackness
All I see is black, not light
Not even a little white

I feel it coming onto me,
It’s becoming hard to see
I can barely move at all
I wonder when I’m going to fall

Creeping Darkness

I feel it coming onto me,

I can barely move at all
I wonder when I’m going to fall

The darkness is surrounding
My heart starts pounding
I wave my hand in front of my face

Darkness swallowing me whole,
Eating up my mind and my soul
I can’t find any one in the never-ending night

The darkness is all around,
Making me fall to the ground,
Pushing me so I fall down,
Laughing at my frown

The frown that I can feel but not see,
Because darkness is all around me
It leaves me all alone,
I’m all on my own

Nothing but darkness
And all of its blackness
All I see is black, not light
Not even a little white

I feel it coming onto me,
It’s becoming hard to see
I can barely move at all
I wonder when I’m going to fall

Oh wow Sprints! I think this is my new favourite from you! You get better with each and every write...I was swept up in this one, you made the darkness come alive. A dark write indeed, but you wrote it with a wonderful style, and kept a good flow and rhyme scheme...All the while bringing your emotions to light (no pun intended : ) ) with your well chosen words...Well done!!
