Darkness scratches at my door. Demons lurk beneath the surface. The floor churns and creaks. Black here and there. Fire burns and wounds drip. Small emotions leak. Drowning Joy. Killing Freedom. Stabbing Happiness. Choking Laughter. Strangling Smiles. Now they lay beneath the soil. Joy, Freedom, Happiness. Laughter and Smiles. How I miss them… Just out of my reach. I can almost touch- Yet darkness reaches out- And swallows all five whole.
