Trapped in a tunnel
Light at the end
Gets smaller
And dimmer
Options narrowing
Faint musky odor
Air neither cold
Nor warm
Stagnant
Invisible things move
Slithering, slinking
Shadow beings
Never quite visible
Standing still
Heart pounding
Audible
Above the dull silence
Senses dulled
Disoriented
No pain
No fear
No joy
No anger
No peace
Nothing
Wishing for sleep
Hoping to waken
When the light returns
Fearful it will disappear
During slumber
Never to return
Or be replaced
By something unknown
