Darkness

Darkness,
Engulfs me,
Letting me sink deeper and deeper,
All around me,
I see nothing,
Nothing but darkness,
Fear takes over,
In the blackness,
You never know what's there to get you,
Darkness is filled with hate,
Filled with destruction,
But people believe in the Ying-Yang,
Where there is dark,
There is a hidden light,
Opposites make the world go round,
The darkness swallows me,
Into a never-ending depth of black,
All around me,
I hear the whispers of hate,
Whispers of disgust,
Whisps of air brush my cheeks,
I seem to be falling forever,
I look beneath me,
Seeing nothing,
Wishing there was something,
Anything,
Light,
I start to feel cold,
Goosebumps start appearing on my skin,
I rub my arms as I try to warm up,
There is no use,
There is no reason in trying,
I'm getting sucked in,
Deeper and deeper,
Into the pit of darkness,
I start to think that this darkness,
Is an abyss,
Never-ending,
Continuing for eternity,
Down, down, down,
I seem to be falling forever,
I finally crash onto the cold, hard ground,
I feel like running,
Running,
Running,
Until I reach something,
Anything,
Light,
But I don't,
I lay there on the rock-hard ground,
Wishing I could get back up,
Something is mentaly holding me down,
Keeping me afriad of adventuring off into the dark,
Evil,
I feel evil surround me,
I realize where I'm at,
My brain goes into full motion,
I start running,
My bare feet giing "Smack! Smack!" on the ground beneath me,
Something is nipping at my heels,
Chasing me,
Something is right behind me,
I speed up,
It does the same,
Frightened and scared,
I try to look around me,
Finsing anything to send the evil near me away,
I barely make out candles,
But no matches near by,
I take the sticks,
Running backwards,
Throw them at whatever was behind me,
I sense it stop and I take off running,
I am frightened,
Wishing to go back up,
Not wanting to stay down here,
I suddenly slip on the ground,
Cold water surrounds me,
I shiver as I stand back up,
I hear dropletts drip into the water,
Drip-drop,
Drip-drop,
Down comes the drops,
More and more come down,
It starts to rain,
Harder and harder it comes down,
The colder and colder I become,
I can't tell the difference between my tears and the rain anymore,
I come to some kind of door,
I pound on it,
Hoping someone would come,
Hoping I would be rescued,
No one hears me,
I can't stand the pain,
And I can't make it go away,
I scream as loud as I can,
I start bawling,
I am soaked,
Coated,
In a blanket of water,
Darkness,
All around me,
Ice-cold water,
All around me,
I try to remember,
Where there is darkness,
There is always a hidden light,
Why isn't the light showing itself,
I don't know,
I ask myself this question for what seems like eons,
The rain lightens up,
It stops with its few last drops of water,
I finally close my eyes,
To see more darkness,
Eyes open,
Eyes closed,
I'm blinded,
By the darkness that I behold,
I slip into a deep sleep,
Not knowing what would come of my dreams,
Wishing,
Hoping,
There'd be light,
In my dream,
Or in reality

Author's Note

Ignore spelling errors, I'm a bad speller and my phone doesn't have autocorrect. Spur of the moment, before going to bed. I've had a pretty bad day so I thought I'd write about darkness. I hope you enjoyed it. Also, I couldn 't "finish" it. My writing juices ran out. Leace suggestions and tips to make this writing, as well as the others, better. Thanks!

Hey Willa!
So this reminded me of a few things. When your pounding on the door I can see the opening scene of The Hunchback of Notre Dame when the gypsy is pounding on the door to try to save her child. She's crying. I see that here. Also, when you are being chased, I can't help but see Willa, Philby, Finn, Maybeck, Charlene, Amanda, and Jess being chased by the OTs. It's just what I see in that, but still. I don't have much else to say about this except for the fact that it is really good and has great imagery. I can feel the pain, cry the tears, run in the rain. Nicely penned Willa!
Best regards,
Dell

Thanks Philby! By the way, what am I supposed to put in m script? That's what is confusing me.

[Phillitup]

Um, intro, inciting incident, rising action, conflict, resolution and you have to mark those in the script. I think there is one more thing but I forget. Remember a title page.

[Phillitup]

Wait...history fair or playwriting. LOL I just told you playwriting. IDK for HF.

[Phillitup]

[Savior of Time]

[Savior of Time]

[Phillitup]

Thanks. No. I'm not myself today. I'm brain dead and feel funny. IDK. I watched it in french class in the french language so it was kind of odd but it was good.
