Alive

Running out of breath
She stumbles on to the ground
The shadows are getting closer and closer
It’s going to take her away
Away, deeper into the woods
where no one could hear her wails
I try to help
But it seems no one can hear or see me
I’m invisible
She is now dragged
But as I see her face closer and closer
I realize she is me
The girl is me
The one dragged by the dark shadows, is me
I try to fight it, but nothing is working
It’s like a really bad nightmare
But just as I was thinking that
I stumble off my bed
Relieved to wake up in my bed
I run out of my room
Feeling all alive
