It's the Darkness That Keeps Chasing Me

It's the darkness that keeps chasing me.

That leaves me shivering and cold upon my knees.

It's the despair that I loath.

The feeling that nothing I do can stop this ship from it's course.

It's this feeling, like someone is stalking me.

And no matter how fast I run she's always catching up.

It's like I'm in a dream.

And when I try to scream nothing escapes my throat but a horse whisper.

I gag on the fetid stench that is my life without you.
