Agony Takes Over
City lights flash here and there
So bright that they could almost bright me
People walk around so full of life,
It almost suprises me.
I tug my jacket closer and make my way through the crowd
I can feel the chill on my cheeks now…
The dungeon dark lane awaited
As I took the right turn to my house…
40 more steps, I mentally calculated
as the isolated road spread itself before me
………………………………………………………………………
…………………………………………………………………………
Two hands grab my waist from behind
As I struggle to get free
Pain shot through me as I felt
A strong hand across my cheek.
You know how to fight back,
Myself I convinced.
A kick in the stomach one of the men received.
Two other hands held my legs now
As they lifted me off the ground
*Thud*
I land on plain concrete ground
My eyes get heavy and my head feels dizzy
I barely manage to keep the agony from taking over me
Two pairs of strong hands
land on my torso
All my courage to fight back diminishes
I fight back with my hands frantically
But nothing I do is enough
to stop the sting.
I open my mouth to all out
My lips barely part
I feel the irritation of my scorched throat
Not even a whisper I could manage
I lift my hands in an attempt to get up
A punch lands directly on my face
I black out
……………………………………………………………….
………………………………………………………………….
Hours later my eyes struggle to open themselves
The memories of the pain come rushing back
Tears sting my eyes
And flow down mercilessly.
I lay there barely breathing
Waiting for death to take over me.
