The Fight

The more they speculate-

The more my secrets seem to glimmer. 

But my secrets and I will vanish if they are pounced upon. 

Soon the others follow behind like zombies. 

Trying to sneak up steadily. 

So that I am forced to dive deeper.

The more I hide, the more I forget what it was like just a few weeks ago…

But someone started this fight.
