Saboteur (Poem)

It’s scary how things can get so dark so fast
A cave so deep that the darkness is blinding

The longer you’re trapped the blinder you get
Until you can’t remember what it was like to see

Staggering around in anguish
Struggling to latch onto a reason to live

Nostalgia amounts to the type of affliction that decimates every last hope left within

Until your corpse lives on right beside you
Doing things you would have never did

As the “you” you once were fades further away
Breath by breath
Dig by dig

Wailing around in the darkness
No longer the “you” you once were

A grim apparition that haunts the night
A volitional saboteur
