Darkness surrounds me,
closing on me.
In life,
murder was my friend.
Greed fueled my fire,
and I hated.
I had no friends,
only enemies.
Now, my reward is death.
Complete and total darkness,
closing in on me.
There were those,
that tried to change my ways.
I laughed at their stupidity,
and cursed their God.
Life is not a journey,
but a test.
I failed that test.
And now, darkness surrounds me,
closing in on me.
What lurks in the darkness?
I know not.
I hear screams cut short,
and I am terrified.
My life is done,
and it is too late for change.
Darkness comes.
Closing in on me.

What shall i do?
Try to find my way out?
Just sit and wait?
Will a hero find me?
Will i find my own self?
by Betty Blake
Don't you think something is out of order right here?
Come on, it has been quite a few years since we
have been together.
As I lay in the dark, I could see black,
Even thoughts got the contagion, dark
The mind , the body and even the soul!
