The Light I fall down a dark hole, and I'm instantly suffocated by the pressure of my demons They rip at my skin They tear at my flesh I scream in panic and pain Agony swirls through my veins Like the deadly venom of a cobra My mind goes blank My Soul seems to fade away My demons are stronger than ever Just as I think I'm going mad all the screaming inside my head quiets A tiny light glows through the sand The demon's claws loosen around my windpipe Air fills my lungs, and the demons fade into the shadows. The light is not alone Its friends are hidden under the sand Cold, wet and heavy it tries to bury me too Yet still, I struggle Still, I strain Still, I dig without a shovel I grovel on hands and knees "Where are they? Where are they?" Panic consumes Will I ever find them? Will the other lights ever shine through? The sand rises, higher and higher A time glass, counting down What will happen when it stops? Will the lights expire? I can't allow it I can
