I can hear you.
Scream.
In my head.

I cannot see you.
Running.
In the dark.

I stare into the darkness.
Keep my eyes open.
They are burning
from tears and weariness.

But I don’t dare to close them.
Afraid, not to see you coming.
Or afraid to see you?
In my memory.

Oh please tell me
those are not the last
screams from you!

Tell me you’re coming back.
Smiling, eyes shining as
bright as before.

I don’t want to see
those blank and obtuse
eyes.

I know your screams
don’t leave your head,
your lips.

You’re not able to
do anything.

I scream for you.
Scream out all the
pain and fear.

Your quest will be
finished soon.
I feel it.

But will you ever be able to
leave the darkness?

I know you body will.
But what about
your mind?
