Dread and doom

follow me

Hopelessness envelops

my joy, my hopes, my dreams.

 There is no light at the end

of this tunnel it seems.

Falling, flailing into darkness

unknown. Curling into

myself so I can not be seen.

Taking the last step will

be easy for me. I know the

deep pain will subside once

I cross the forbidden line.

There my pain will be no more

Like an eagle I will soar

into the light that was hidden from me

peace will be mine eternally.
