Damned

The air around me feels eerily intense,

My eyes cannot dart its way upon the pitch-black view,

I do hear series of screams, souls crying out for help,

"Move", I tell my hands and feet but sadly it didn't.

Then I realized that I am helplessly chained on a chair,

For whatever apparent reason which I know nothing about,

Suddenly, the sounds became whispers and then nothing,

A bolt of relief hit me and my chains are gone.

I am now standing using the extent of my strength; plotting my next plan,

Wait, I feel something terribly wrong---a burning sensation,

Then bang! There are engulfing flames wherever I look,

I started to run even if I know it won't do any better.

"Help me! Please! Somebody, anybody, help me!," I yelled,

The fire began to crawl its way upon my tiring feet,

"You cannot go anywhere, you cannot escape", a voice muttered. "Why?," I asked. "Because you are eternally damned. Here, forever, in hell," he answered.
