Hunted

I was running, catching my breath. On the dark, isolated street, I saw a shadow. I heard a voice telling me to follow.


"No! You should go back!"


"No! They are coming!"

I heard these voices in my head. My heart was racing, I can hear my blood flow through my veins. The shadow stepped backwards to where I was standing. It was reaching for my hand.


"No! Don't take it! It's one of them!"


But I had no choice. I need to move forward. I took its hand and ran with it. The voices were coming near. 

"Faster!",


said the shadow, and we ran faster than ever. We were on the bridge, I can see the dark water. There's nowhere to run. The shadow pushed me to the water, and dove after. I screamed


"No!"


"You are safe here", it said.


I was screaming, struggling, fighting. Something was pulling me deeper, I looked down. I saw myself, she smiled at me. In my head, I heard her say,


"You are safe now dear."

I smiled back and said thank you. I closed my eyes, calmed my self, and felt the water filling my chest. I was at peace.


"I am safe now, from the world outside."

Sunrise to Sundown

The forest seems to be a good place

To rest my mind and be embraced,

By the cool breeze and soothing wind

In my amazement I laugh and spin.

Tall and huge trees are everywhere

I can hear the splash of water somewhere,

The birds are singing a sweet lullaby

I look up in the sky and smile.

The ocean seems so inviting

To take a dip and go swimming,

Cold water in a hot summer day

Will make you utter a simple prayer.

In the evening, the moon is shining bright

It gives me light in the dark of the night,

To the distant heavens I see from a far

A big, twinkling and shining star.

From sunrise to sundown

All on earth should bow down,

God's creation is truly amazing

I can not help myself, I'm smiling.

I look up again to the sky and see

How beautiful this life could be,

White clouds with different shapes

Gratefulness in mouth escapes.
