Eruption
I’m living in a volcano,
Where the walls tremble and shake
With mighty roars
And the ground crumbles
Beneath my feet.
The lava is rising,
The heat is suffocating,
And I can hardly breathe.
My heart is burning
As the flames trap me beneath them.
The ash is choking me
As I inhale it.
So painfully,
I know,
As the lava rises to engulf me,
That the eruption will soon come to claim me.
