Desolation Boy 2

He doesn't know where to go

NO

PLEASE

He screams out into the darkness

Thrashing and fighting

Kicking and screaming

That his monsters will just

Leave

Him

Alone

But they don't and they won't

They drag their fingers along his skin

Making him burn and cry out

They rip his heart out of his chest

And play keep away with it

He's running in circles to find his heart

When the world beneath his feet

D

R

O

P

S

And he f
              a
              l
              l
              s

Hitting the black void with a thud

Which turns into sticky quicksand

That covers his eyes

Grips his torso

Places a hand over his mouth

All while he fights

Screams his lungs out till they break

Thrashes to get out

Before it drowns him

And just when he goes limp

It stops

He's somewhere else now

Confused and dissociating

He doesn't know where to go

Not anymore

He drops to his knees

And pleads the universe

To just set him free
