I Die

September 28, 1997
By: Kim Adams

Darkness deep and suffocating, it covers me.
Coating me in its anger.
Fear consumes me.
Fear of all that the darkness will take.
It takes it all-everything-I touch the darkness consumes.
I run.
but I get no where.
I'm trapped.
Trapped by webs of decit and maddness.
I hide.
Pull myself away.. hiding what I can.
The shame.
They still find me.
Slowly taking a strip of my pride each time they laugh.
I cry.
It's too much.. the pain.. the fear.. the shame.
I scream.
Scream for the pain they create.
I die.
Die to escape the pain, the fear, the lies, the hate.
