Fumbling, stumbling,
around in the dark.
Fighting, igniting,
flames from a spark.
Blinded, reminded,
of the fear inside,
Turning, yearning,
for a place to hide.
Soaking, choking,
struggling to breathe,
Hiding, abiding,
my ghost won't leave.
Chasing, racing,
I stagger away,
Breathless, restless
in the mud I lay.
Dreaming, gleaming,
I escape the past,
Winning, new beginning,
I am free at last.
