Called out of Darkness – Part I

I was terrified of the thick darkness. I heard the siren as only a faint sound like it was far, far off in the distance. I wanted to get to that sound, but it was so dark, I did not know where it was. Thick darkness engulfed me, and I could barely hear the sound anymore. Death’s door was opened.

Fear and Anxiety

I was vaguely aware of a very distant-sounding high-pitched noise.  The siren.  I struggled  to concentrate on the faint sound, to go toward it, but everything was black.  Yet, in my unconscious state, I knew if I could get to that sound, I would be okay.   But the thick darkness swirled in.
