Prey

All I hear is the wind howl.

Scares me to think what it hides.

Darkness stares deeply and prowls

Around me, fooling my eyes.

I was wise to learn from you,

But foolish to leave my home.

Dreams now too old to come true,

And I fear being alone.

I don’t matter to what’s here;

Just a thing to hunt and eat.

Madness steeps my heart in fear,

Fills my ears with every beat.

I think my mind atrophied;

My throat has nothing to share.

The wind drowns out all I need,

And the darkness never cared.
