Scream

Black branches curl before the darkening sky

As gnarled oaks try to fend off the gathering storm

Wet, grey leaves clutch hungrily at my tired feet

While searching, I only further lose my way



Something blacker than shadows moves just out of sight

Its whispers hidden in the wind

Black clouds crush the grey clouds

The sky sinks and the wind stops



A twig snaps under the weight of the silence

It's life forfeit in the woods too long

The last faint light of day leaves me still, afraid to move

Then a distant scream of my future self sends a shiver down my spine
