Blind Chaos

Image Source

The path is crowded with thick fog

It pierces every part of me, her scream

Blinded, I slowly try to trace the path

Not too sure if I'm in a dream

A sharp stone pierces my bare foot

Almost to prove that I'm still awake

Cries of plea cloud my ears

I hear the shackles she's trying to break

I soon bump into an old ripped tree

This seems to be an unknown jungle

Suddenly, fear grips me from all sides

I now know I can't afford to fumble

I need to find and save her

Her screams get more desperate

There is no longer a strength in her voice

Almost like she's surrendered to fate

I look around the thick smoke

Straining my eyes to fine her silhouette

I see faint colors and abstract hues

But I feel no trace of her yet

I now hear loud sobs

I feel her tears drizzle on me

I'm getting wet as I walk

The source of which I cannot see

Her desperation hits me like a blaze

Burning me from deep within

Why is she being tormented?

Has she committed a deadly sin?

I feel closer to the melancholy now

I hear the agony more clear

I just want to find her soon

No more pain I want her to bear

Her screams now deafen me

Stinging me deep through the core

Every part of me now burning

Not feeling her presence anymore

I hear the shackles loud and clear

But this woman I cannot see

When the scream threatens to break me apart

I realize that it is coming from within me
