Darkness

Trapped in a tunnel
Light at the end
Gets smaller
And dimmer
Options narrowing

Faint musky odor
Air neither cold
Nor warm
Stagnant

Invisible things move
Slithering, slinking
Shadow beings
Never quite visible

Standing still
Heart pounding
Audible
Above the dull silence

Senses dulled

Disoriented

No pain
No fear
No joy
No anger
No peace

Nothing

Wishing for sleep
Hoping to waken
When the light returns

Fearful it will disappear
During slumber
Never to return

Or be replaced
By something unknown
