The Night The World Shattered

As the quiet of the night 

All but a whisper

The fears chasing your every step

With every word

The pain 

the worry

Drowns out every little sound 

Shattering the whole world 

In less than a second

The numbness washes over you

As you were never a whole

As you were drowning in an ocean 

As you were begging to be let go 

But this will never end

Fear will grab you 

Until there is nothing left to grab
