running for my life
unrationally i flee
looking back nothing, something
my fear pushes me on
my heart thumps in my chest
adrenalin pumps through my veins
fear gives me speed
never enough never
it's breathe blows across my neck
i feel the wind of its claws
grappling for me it strikes
i scream in pain
it has me in its grip
claws bite deep into my chest
i sit up in bed breathless
a dream, just a dream
i look down and see the blood
gouges of pain as i shudder in fear
i sense it watching me
