Dark. <br />No one. <br />Nothing <br />Emptiness. <br /> <br />Then, <br />Shadows dancing among shadows, <br />Like pictures on a wall. <br />No light but less dark. <br />Oh! How can it be? <br />The shadows, they dance and now run towards me. <br /> <br />“Help! Please help! ” but no one to hear. <br />Run! Oh run! Run away in fear. <br />I’ll run and I’ll hide alone in this dark, <br />Praying and hoping for a sound or a spark: <br />A tiny light to see, <br />A voice to accompany me, <br />But no. <br /> <br />So I sit… or do I? <br />It’s too dark to know, <br />Too quiet to hear, <br />I’m too numb to feel. <br /> <br />There’s no one. <br />Nothing <br />Empty. <br />Dark.<br /><br />Amanda Ford<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/once-upon-a-nightmare-formerly-where/
