The Darkness

by HaleyRenae

Darkness ascends 

Quietly. 

Creeping 

Ever so slowly. 

Unnoticed 

At first glance. 

Until suddenly 

It engulfs me whole 

Devouring my essence 

And potential. 

Swiftly and with 

Bleak  finality 

Only a shell 

Remains. 

Not of what was, 

But of what 

Could have been.
