Hold your hands up in front of your face……….nothing Move your hands to touch your face…you can feel them, but can you see them?……nothing....Listen for any sounds no matter how small.....nothing...... Oh God…….you are in a place so dark that you can’t see the hand in front of your face….blackness so deep and dark that there is not a speck of light to allow your eyes to adjust…….your eyes dart from side to side…….nothing. 

 You try to be the twenty four year old mature person that you think you are………nothing.....Look up at the ceiling with your eyeballs straining…….nothing.. You’ve got nothing to be afraid of……What the hell are you thinking?………..nothing....You can’t forget the darkness...got to leave, got to get out of here…..the very darkness that you were afraid of when you were eight years old….but why……….what happened to make the darkness the cold enemy it is right now…….. It wasn’t the worrying about what was under the bed, it was the unknown…the blackness…the evil……the nothing What in the hell is that noise? Your breathing has gone from shallow to nothing……you wait for your heart to stop just like your breathing has……..you think not breathing might help you hide from what is in the room with you…..but the sound is getting closer…your tear drops fill your eyes but won’t fall……. You can’t move…….you can’t turn your head to look behind you, but the sounds are now so close that you feel the warmth of it’s breath…………what is it…….. Oh my God……..
