Here's another chapter…one more after this should do it. This is the thoughts going through Freddy's mind. I wrote this for some reason a few days ago. It was originally going to go on here as a one-shot thing with a different story behind it, but it seems to work into this one really well. I showed my friend Danielle this and she said I should be famous for my writing. But I think if the wrong people saw this I'd be dragged off to a mental institution.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The lethargy swallows me alive,
I'm drowning in the darkest pool.
Gasping for my life tonight,
Fighting for nothing, like a fool.

I'm burning up and thrashing about,
As these flames consume me alive.
Flames writhing with poison burning.
Impossible to survive.

Clawing at me, scratches deep.
The blood spills from the wound.
Ripping me to hateful shreds.
From all life I am marooned.

Lost and scared, afraid to move.
In the dark my death is lurking.
Caught in a whirlwind of shadows,
I'm tossing and turning and jerking.

Screaming, crying out for love,
And someone to hold on to.
But I'm trapped in this raging storm.
Waves of fear anew.

All I seek is a beam of light
To save me from this demise.
I'm letting go, I'm giving in
Tired of all these lies.

No one is coming to save me,
No one to ease the pain.
This is it, the final chance
To save me from this rain.

I feel a grip, not cold like death
Embracing my wretched soul.
Am I free from all the torment
This darkness black as coal.

The rain is slowly breaking,
The wind is fading away.
Flames have stopped their licking,
Murky water staying at bay.

I open my eyes for the first time,
Nearly blinded by the light.
Was I rescued from the pain
When I was losing the fight?

Is it the brightness of Heaven's doors
Or the fires burning in Hell?
What will I see when I open my eyes,
How much longer have I to dwell?

I force myself to open up
To face my awful fate.
But what a shock when I come at last
Back into a world of hate.

But how could the world hate me so
If someone saved my life?
Maybe there was a ray of sun,
Cutting through clouds of strife.

My ray of sun has saved me
From inevitable death tonight.
Something saved me from myself,
A special beam of light.

I notice someone is holding my hand.
I see him now; It's all so clear.
A connection flows of love and care.
My life-saving miracle is here.

He cared enough to save me
From my own dark mind.
Save me from my own destruction.
Rushed in my room to find:

A lost and lonely being crying,
Sitting and dying on the floor.
A bottle of pills and a knife beside me,
I thought that I had nothing to live for.

But someone cared about me
I'd thought wrong all along
Because he truly cares for me
I know I can stay strong.
