GF They sulked out into the open. They have come to devour me. FG

I ran.

Ran from the fears that have haunted me for what feels like an eternity.

          The fears that threaten to consume my tattered, bloody soul.

No matter how hard I run,

          No matter how fast I run,

                   No matter how far I run,

                             They find me.

                                      I fear I cannot hide for much longer.

They are the hunters and I am the prey.

          They are strong and I am weak.

                   They are driven by hunger and I am tortured by it.

Their strength comes from my weakness.

          They continue to drain me.

                   Hunt me.

                             Haunt me.

Demons fly above me,

          Laughing at my feeble attempt to escape.

                   Escape my fears.

                             The fears that will not leave me alone.

                                      No matter how hard I try.

I run.

          I don’t know how long I’ve been running.

                   And I don’t care.

                             But I do know one thing;

                                       I cannot run for much longer.

                                                I am tired.

                     I have to stop and rest.

They have caught my scent.

          My fear scent.

                   They are coming for me.

I cannot stop.

          I have to keep running.

                   But I am so tired.

I cannot run for much longer,

                                       I have to stop.

                                                I have to stand and fight.

                                                          I have to face my fears.

They have cornered me.

          They circle around me from the safety of those damning shadows.

                   Their fiery green eyes flash in the darkness.

                             Burning what is left of my scarred soul.

They sulked out into the open.

          They have come to devour me.
