DARKNESS……

Underline

Share:

I covered my ears with my hands,

Shutting my eyes close, tightly as possible,

Gasping for air-

I tried to balance my body,

All I craved for was their love and care,

But instead-

I was surrounded by their hatred, their disgust towards me,

What did I even do to deserve this?

I could hear them calling me names,

But I chose to let it slide, chose to keep listening,

They keep on insulting me,

I let them be for who they are,

Tears streaming down my face,

Yet I still let them insult me in the worst ways they can,

Those filthy words coming from their mouth,

Still I chose to let it slide,

Their sickening words kept coming from their mouth,

Making me feel dizzy so bad,

It’s funny how it was suffocating,

Suffocating in every way possible,

I was about to die,

Still they didn’t care to insult me in every way they could,

My breath hitched as I gasped for air again,

My eyes felt heavy and blurry as I tried to stay awake,

My heartbeat slowed down,

Slower than the normal usual beat,

My whole body felt weak,

I slowly loosened by body,

Death embraced me slowly yet softly,

I took my one last breath,

Drifting away in the darkness….

Yet I could still hear their insults,

I just wanted love and peace,

But I guess,

I’ll never get to experience it…

I took my one last breath,

Closing my eyes-

Drifting away in the darkness……
