The Forest of Darkness

I walked within the darkest forest

Couldn’t see the things that are ahead

The journey chosen for me I cannot withstand

Bumps and bruises leaving the stains of blood on me

Darkest creatures in my path I cannot stand your foul things

You hurt me sending waves of sadness towards my way

My hope for escape grows wary

I grow scared each time I venture on

But, I grow weaker and sadder each stay within the forest

I feel that who and what I am is slowly fading away

Only to be consumed and become my darkest fears.
