DARKNESS……
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……
