One Deadly Bite
You stand there your
Heart beat slows and
You stare in to his deadly yellow eyes
You want to run but your legs wont move
You hear him howl as he lowers his head and growls as
If saying go ahead try and
Run
You stand there surrounded by
Trees no one but you and him
He digs his paws in to the
Ground as if he was about to
Pounce
Can’t move can’t scream
Can’t breath can’t do a thing
But wait for the deadly
Beast to unleash its bite to end it all
A single drop of sweat falls down my face
He watches it drop as if time has stopped
Just then you make a dash and he
Smiles just a little
Thinking great fast food
He bends down and he sprints after you
He’s on your heels and you hear him
Growl
You fall and roll and he stands over you
You look in his yellow eyes and they
Say bye-bye
Last thing you see it the moon lit
Sky
Then it’s all over with
One deadly bite
