It comes without warning,Leaving meEmpty,Perplexed,Worn.It comes uninvited,Staying longer than it is welcome.Destruction befalls all crossing its path.Wrath filled with an insatiable hunger!It surrounds me like hateful soldiers,on guard against all who seek to enter.Never sleeping,Always watching,Forcing me ever closer to the...
