The Chase
Your heart races
Your voice screams
Your legs carry you
Through the dream
Your being chased
You don't know by who
It's very dark
What can you do?
It's growing colder
Your lips turn blue
Your skin cracks open
They're coming for you
Your falling apart
Seams coming undone
The predator gets closer
You know that they've won
Your pace starts to slow
Your lungs are aflame
Your screams come up short
They're whispering your name
They take the last steps
Between them and you
As you fall to the ground
This battle you lose
You see it's sharp teeth
It's large, wicked grin
You close your eyes
The pain begins
It's not over quickly
They aim to cause pain
When your light flickers out
A meal it has gained
