Agony

Stripped to nothing ...

Alone.
Blinking against bright light ...
Confused.
Tiny tear escapes unchecked; it trickles down the cheek ...
Emotion.
Gritting teeth, lips curled back; appearance ferocious, savage ...
Terror.
Wracked with pain - stumble ...
Fall.
Slip into Darkness.
Allow it to seep in as oil will.
Engulfed.
Suffocating.
Shivering.
Quivering sigh echoes around the quiet place.
Eyes blink.
Light behind them winks out ...
Relief.
Find a better place, lonely soul
For this world holds nothing.
Merely pain and anguish and misery.
Only the walls will know you've left ...
Rest.
