Buried Alive!
Buried Alive!
Where am I?
I can’t move!
What is this that
I’ve been put in?
I was asleep and
now I wake up in this?
How did I get here?
What type of
Twisted joke is this?
Who in the hell
Would do this to me?
What the crap!
The top is so
close to my face,
Between me and the
Top there’s
hardly any space!
What the hell!
I can’t even turn around.
I try to scream,
And my voice echoes.
Oh my God!
I must be underground.
I’m getting hot and sweaty.
It’s getting harder
and harder to breath!
What am I going to do?
What the bloody
hell am I going to do?
I have claustrophobia
And I’m locked in this
Freaking box!
I’m trapped in this tight space
And I can’t even move,
There’s nothing I can do!
I have no control over
My body and my breathing!
God help me!
I need you, please
get me out of here!
This is the worst place
I could ever be in!
I’d rather be raped or
Stabbed or anything
Besides this!
Get me out of here,
This is my worst haunting fear!
Who would do this to me?
…and now I have to pee,
I can’t even move my arms
To unbutton my jeans!
Oh well, now
I’m pissing all over
Myself.
Great, I might die
With diaper rash.
The air is getting thinner
And thinner, I’ve got to
Calm down.
I’m going to die
Buried alive
Underground,
Without being
Found.
I’m going to die
Without making
The slightest sound!
I’m withering
Away, soon
I won’t be
Around,
I’m fading away.
Who knew
I would
Die today?
Turning blue
Without anything
To do about it!
Get me out of here God
Get me out!
I wrote this poem about my worst fear. I wrote it for a contest. I do have this phobia.
When I was a little girl one of my older cousins locked me in a hope chest and left me there
for hours. Finally an adult heard me and let me out. Since then I've had this phobia. I wish
I could some how get rid of this fear.
