Stalker

STALKER
      At late night train arrived my station.
     I am regular daily passenger.
     Also got down another stranger.
   I did not pay much attention
                                                                                                                                    
   Suddenly sensed someone behind
    Turned back being conscious.
       That stranger suspiciou
      aroused fear in my mind.
                                                                                                                                       
      Entered a lane to misguide
     Decisive follower chose same direction
     I started running on desperation.
      Stranger gained speed, I could not hide.
                                                                          
     Made useless jump on a fence.
       He did not miss leap in dark.
       Needless I loitered in park.
       He followed without uttering a sentence.
                                                                                                                                 
    At last I charged ‘What do you want, say kindly.’
       'My destination is just beside
       the house, you reside.
   Station master asked me to follow you blindly.’
