• i try to open my eyes
    but all i see is black
    where am i?
    why am i not scared?

    i reach out around me
    all i feel is warmth
    what is wrong with this?
    shouldn't i feel scared?

    i raise my head and listen
    at first all i hear is silence
    am i alone?
    why am i scared then?

    then i slowly begin to hear voices around me
    light begins to filter through the black
    i see the people around me
    they are all my friends
    trying to wake me up

    the warmth is their friendship
    the silence is their nonexistent anger
    the black though, the black is the comfort they bring
    for their black clothes or hair is a part of them
    to see that is my peace
