Torn

The
darkness surrounds me, pulls me further down.
I
feel myself slipping deeper.
A
dark force pulls me to the depths of darkness from where I know I won’t return.
Her
voice is now a whisper, a faint cry in the dark. It was my only hope and now
fades like ashes in the wind. I close my eyes and watch as her soul dances in
the embers. The beating of her heart echoes in my ears. I watch as she fades
in and out. I reach for her, but it’s too late.
Her
eyes that once lit up are now dark and grim. The strings of her soul are torn
wide open like a flesh wound bleeding down on me. All of her pain courses
through me. Her last breath chokes me as I watch her fade into the darkness
forever.
If
only I could have done something to save her, even if it was from herself. I
watched as she lay there, holding her cold body in my arms as she left the
world.
Her
last words ring in my ears. The name spills from her pale mouth and replays
over and over in my dreams. Like a nightmare with no end in sight.
The
shadows in the darkness return. They lurk, feeding off my fears, my regrets . .
. of not saving you.
I
hold onto your soul, my hands attached to you like strings to a puppet. Each
one being torn as the darkness consumes me, pulling me further down.
Darkness
surrounds me as I let go.
Every
piece of you is torn from me as if you were never there.
The
darkness fills the empty void you left inside of me. It consumes, gives me a
new purpose.
