sudden start .......... 1Oct04

-gasp-

sudden start

awakening in skipped heartbeats

what just happened?

a dream?

oh, no...

a nightmare.



head, pounded in

figuratively

the pressure rising

with each breath

where has it gone?

the follower.



heard the occasional

creep

on the stairs

couldn't take it anymore

and bolted

the back door

i left it open

never to return.



yet... it...

followed.

my feet, now

as lead.

i run so fast

i move hardly at all

yet jumping over fences,

avoiding barking dogs,

kept running.



ever closer it comes

what is it?

can't stop to find out

stop for help

but no...

they'll trap you there

they're all against me

anyway.



i have to stop

can go no longer

hide behind the rocks

by the ravine

gathered thoughts

what can i do?

there must be

something.



loosely calculated

inside my head

can't write it down

too complicated.



demise, demise.

the time shall come.

i wait.

it will arrive.

it... following, following.



it, as still, undefined

chasing in my nightmare-dream.

somehow though

i wake unharmed

save for a

-gasp-

and a

sudden start
