Stars fail to break through the clouds
The blanketing darkness suffocates
Heat grabs at my flesh
As I race through night to escape
Sounds follow as if unafraid
What is there plan for this time
My legs begin to fail
As the stumbling brings forth reality
Why did I bother ever running
This body can no longer do such
With each increasing crackling sound
I am reminded of my failing too much
There it is finally capturing me
I feel the fingers on my spine
Time has run out
My body stiffens as the searing begins
The fingers burn deeply within
Carving and severing bone
Ribbons of pain flow outward
Sucking the air from my depressed lungs
I succumb as I do each time
Never able to outrun this pain giver beast
This body depleting reaper
That creeps through my every piece
