The Awakening Before Death

The Awakening Before Death

I blink but do not see
It calls my name and beckons to me
An endless void, dark as night
All my feelings are centered in fright
I try to resist but I am weak
I try to hide but it always knows where to seek
How do I fight what I cannot see
I am trapped and may never go free

Among the darkness a smell does rise
I gasp for air and foresee a deadly surmise
It tells me lies on every breath
I know the truth holds only death
I can feel its power its getting stronger
It thinks I may not have much longer
It chants to me "give in" give in"
Should I give up this battle within

A strength that surges beneath my skin
All my fear begins to thin
It thinks its won
Trust me, it is the only one
I will fight this beast into the ground
In a place that can never be found

I have one choice and its not to hide in fear
For I know either way that death may be near
I can feel its anger flare
It presence is almost more than I can bare
It has taken hold and will not let go
Its power is more than the physical world can know
Daggers are piercing my body and soul I must ignore the pain
The dark void will only gain
I close my eyes as blood runs down my face
I know this evil must have a weak place

Pain and fear is its power
I will suffer not in this hour
Instead I will smile and deny it a source
And in the end I will give no remorse
I can hear twisting and turning its battle is lost
Its noise is deafening but I listen despite the cost

All my strength has come from hate
And soon I realize we share the same fate
I will find solace and be content
For there is no reason to repent
The damage is done
There is no place to run
One direction lies before me
My fate is sealed and I know now what it must be
Darkness, is beckoning for my arrival
And I know that there will be no survival.
