Tiny fingers grasp, a flashlight lightly

Batteries are dying

Without it, there's no escape

For this eternal cave

My heartbeat is increasing

Pumping loudly enough to wallow in my throat- it's hurting.

Tiny fingers become shaken and sweaty

They start to tremble with knees gone weak

There's no fog in my mind of what I'm needing

I step closer to you, and press my index to your lips- shushing..

And with one last kiss, darkness turns to light, darkening at the

same time!
