Poetry: I am in the dark

by Max Grim

Created on: August 08, 2011   Last Updated: August 09, 2011

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.
