Dread
Running through the night
The forest extends
Trapped in twists and bends
No exit in sight
Death chases behind
the killers close in
Thrawn roots choke my shin
I have lost my mind
Wait to be consumed
By the clear killers
Hiding in pillars
where can’t be assumed
I fall into sky,
I’m swallowed by night
No escape in sight
I must wait to die
there’s only silence
but beats in my ears
Tasting salted tears
No death nor violence
Always a victim
Life is not my own
I’m always alone
Life on other’s whim
Evil always lurks
I’m always helpless
My fate is hopeless
Nothing I do works
I can’t overcome
the need to be free
of my destiny
They make me succumb
