Whispers

Complete darkness
No voice answers
Cold, alone
Abandoned
Betrayed
Deceived
Left in a daze, unprepared
Crushed beneath the weight of disbelief

The throat aches from too many tears
The heart breaks, too heavy with fear

Will tomorrow come, it seems unlikely
Swallowed up by the pain... desparately searching for a reason
to put one foot in front of the other

He whispers my name... I follow.
