Member Poem

Alone in the darkness
I sit and I tremble
What shall befall me,
to answer, not able?

What have I done
to deserve such treatment
To my mind
nothing reveals it.

The fear deep inside me
I cannot abide.
A bright spot of light,
I must find to hide.

The darkness envelopes,
overwhelms my mind
I need to get out,
but how, I can't find.

No deed have I done,
I've hurt no one,
I need to escape
from this torturous fate.

The darkness grows darker
The fear grows much deeper
My mind will soon burst
there is nothing worse.

Alas, I hear a sound,
footsteps all around.
A calling of my name?
Hurrah, I've been found.

As darkness turns to day
Was a dream, so they say
There's no evil found
My joy has come round.
