Darkness drips down the walls and hopelessness sets in.
The good begins to fade and the horror and fears set in.

It’s like watching the world breathe and carry on,
As your breath is held and you fall behind.

It’s like watching a light flicker and fade,
And thinking there is no hope for more.

It pain, fear and suffering,
All your worries bought to life.

Its anguish and burning
With no chance of it relenting

You sit in your cave, hidden away
With only the darkness around you

No one will see or notice you there
Will anyone even care?

Where is the help when it’s needed the most?
Where are the people you need?

How can it be that one little thing?
Will define your life for good?
