The Last Minutes of Peace

The world's a blur Winding through streets of empty Sore muscles Out of breath Out of fear She ran as he followed A pace so slow Yet closing in A grin of mirth Yet much sinister A figure so old Yet so strong She ran as It followed All went blank As she stared at the looming wall Eyes averted towards her doom Yet nothing appeared! As tears of relief sprinted The drumming inside her faded... Her tale went far and wide The tale of a woman who found eternal rest Before her doom.
