Black

Night
silence
darkness
are you alone?
small voice in her 
head asked 
her.
she 
looked around
straining her ears
eyes
for any sign
of 
shifting
shapes
snores
breathing
nope.
yes
alone
window
curtains
drawn
night
midnight
door 
closed
where are the others?
inky 
black fear
spread
like a 
bucket
of tar
thick
viscous
unrelenting
clutching
at her 
heart
choking 
breath
sinking 
stomach
settling
to 
the very 
bottom
of 
a dread filled
heart
an alien 
scream
raised
the hair
on her
forehead
an emotion
so 
strong
she could not 
recognize
her own
voice
sound.
