Silence and Darkness

I looked around, and all I heard was a silence sounding. I listened carefully, but all I saw was the darkness surrounding. Beyond all the pain, all I felt was my heart pounding. The stress and strain rain down, leaving me broken and bruised Then left drowning. But I swam. In the swarm of silence Surrounded by the Damned. I am unarmed and they are violent. There are no alarms, but the screams are like sirens. I cannot see my hànds but I can feel the pain in my arms. My back feels broken I cannot stand but inside this fire rises beyond the brightest stars. I began to understand The Light will always shine in Silence, No matter how Dark.
