Run

Footsteps fall behind me

The ghostly laugh follows me with every step I take

My breathing deepens, and my heartbeat jumps

I won't make it

The voice told me I couldn't

Everything is covered in shadows

Mist circles my body

Caressing my exposed skin like a feather

It sends chills through me

This is not a welcoming touch

It brings fear to every thought I have

The footsteps are close now, I won't make it

There were no second chances for me

That cold, hard hand lands on my should

With my last breath I whisper

"If only, but you'll never know now"

And with that it was dark
