Derailed

Pounding the heart does.

Away run from the Shadow.

The dark and scary Shadow.

Breathing that is lost.

From the fear.

Not wanting to give in.

But giving in still.

Derailed.

That is what I am.

Lost the tracks.

The carefully plotted tracks.

Hearing train noise.

The shrieks and screams around.

Until there was nothing.

Blackened earth all around.

Then red blood spilled. Silence.

Deafening silence.

Wake up I need.

From everything.

I open my eyes.

The dream stopped.
