Breathe

The skies are black,
The wood is silent.
The air is freezing,
Shivers are violent.

The sounds are humid,
My breath an icey hum.
Hiar tangled behind me,
All I can hear is the beat of my heart,
Like a drum.

I'm alone,
Aren't I?
The dotted stars look down,
With a wistful eye.

Can I get out?
The darkness and silence is my only reverie.
Laughter mixed with screams in my head,
Can anyone save me?

This silence,
Eats away at me.
I smile a twisted smile,
Thank God no-one can see.
