Running
Running down the long, curvy, hilly road
The monsters closing in behind
My legs struggling to carry the load
I can't run far enough to escape my mind
The monsters slobbering, growling, running like dogs
Constantly chasing, always gaining ground
I lift my legs to escape the bog
Yet they catch me without a sound
I know I must fight these things,
Shadows attempt to overwhelm me
These are the beasts that bring down kings
So I'll make another attempt to flee
