Drip, Drip, Drip
Crack, crack, crack
I feel the fingers go down my back
The hot breath, overwhelming me
I look around and can not see
I take a breath but no air was near
I gasp again in fear
The whispers surround me
Coming closer and closer
The arms wrap around my chest
Squeezing the last of the air I have left

I close my eyes
Letting the world **** me in
Whispering my last silent good byes
Suddenly the bones around my chest turn to flesh
Air fills my lungs, like cutting the ties
Whispers retreating giving way for the fresh
I open my eyes and see you here
My body stops shaking in fear
The warmth radiates around me
I relax in your hold
Seeing you here makes me so bold
We take on this darkness together
Just you and me
I bring it home
And you make it leave
An endless cycle
One we take on together
