ditch

What started as a large tunnel has turned into a ditch

The darkness gets darker and the light fades quick

The sounds get quieter and the walls move away

You stand in the middle with no sense of place

Unsure of the next step or the right way to face

 

The feeling takes over until you cant breathe

And the terror chokes your voice away

The tears keep falling but not a sound is made

But you can feel the wetness as you wipe your cheek

 

One thought comes across that tries to calm you

Until the panic overtakes and even surrounds you

Every feeling inside melds together in sorrow

Happy thoughts turn dark in a moment of time

Like they have fallen in quicksand, sinking lower

 

Tomorrow is coming as fast as it can

But the monster inside isn't ready to go away

It makes the ditch bigger and deeper for you

To keep you held hostage in this feeling of blue

 

As time goes on the numbness takes over

Until the only option is to give in to the ditch

And make your home in it's depths.
