Darkness


In the darkness

Of the landing

I stand afraid

Unsure of what I see

 

There are only shadows

Creeping all around

Words being said

Like whispers in a tree

 

The blackness is suffocating

The lines are blurred

I take a step back

And fall to the ground

 

I awake startled

No idea of who I am

How did I end up here

In this land of make-believe?
