Desperation

Dead, cold hands reaching out,

Eery silence, I want to shout,

Solemn mourners, with inky tears,

Promises twist and they turn into fears,

Everyone's choking, and yet they can't see, 

Reality warping, ignoring my plea,

Again and again I call out "help me please",

Tapping their shoulders, aware of disease,

Illness spreads among them like a shadowy mass,

Over the ground, along the grass,

No one can see me, it's no longer pretend. 

 

So they can't hear the warnings, and they all die in the end.
