The Stalker Piece Two

The sky is blood red- He is on the loose again. He is stalking me- He's every where I go outside He sometimes frightens me- Even though I know he'll be there Eventually he creeps right up there- When I was younger I tried to out run him. Some times I think I did- I would hide in the trees. I'd hide in the flock- Until I was sure he was gone. I'd peek out to see- Yes! He's gone! I feel free, so I run Happy to finally be alone. Damn it, but wait- He's back. I run in my house- Lock all the doors. Stay inside all night And half the day. I go out looking for him. There he is again. Defeated I go back inside- Where I silently weep. But at least I'm alone.
