The End

Lying on the bed.
Eyes wide open,
Trying to keep awake.
Putting off the unavoidable.

The darkness is all I know.
Disturbing shadows,
The noticeable shades of black,
The overwhelming scream of silence.

Prickles up the spine
with shoulders tense,
Anticipating what the darkness
Is going to do next.

Mental conflict in my mind,
Battling fear.
Can't close my eyes.
Or its The End.

I wish I hadn't done it.
Pills are starting
To take effect,
And kicking in.

Eyes drooping,
Trying to fight,
But slowly losing
the battle.

Breathing slows,
Vision dims,
Mind eases,
And I let go.

I have lost the battle,
Against darkness.
This is, The End,
of me.
