The Unknown

leabee's picture

She escapes into the darkness
without a word to be said.
She's terrified of the unknown,
with all to dread.
She let the secrets seep into her mind,
allowing all to be chased inside her head.
She sees what she shouldn't see, and feels
what shouldn't be felt.
She finally screams for a stretch of reality.
To be normal, to be free.
She escapes into the darkness
without a word to be said.
She's terrified of the unknown,
with everything to dread.

She escapes..
