When Darkness Calls

When Darkness Calls

The curtains of darkness fell,

I stopped, I looked, I hid,

It slithered on me, the hell,

Shut myself under a lid. 

It was fear engulfing me,

I didn't know what to do,

Cast down on my knees,

Nothing left but to rue. 

This is the end,

I shall never be forgotten

My life is all spent,

Now I have fallen.

Death slowly inched through,

No one there, my head spinning,

Nothing to look up to,

Just the evils grinning. 

What did I do wrong?

I will never ever know,

Death has sung its song,

No one to see tomorrow.
