Jump

Hiding

He doesn't know I'm hiding here,

I've been behind this boulder for two days now,

Unable to eat, unable to sleep, unable to enjoy my life,

I am paled by all this shattering fear,

He only walks back and forth,

He knows I'm hiding somewhere,

But he cannot see where I might be,

He has been blocking my only way out,

His hunger hits him with a great force,

But I do not wish to be his meal,

The stars have not aligned for me,

I have little to no luck at all,

And I do not know how to feel,

I wish he'd leave if I loudly stomp,

I must be brave, must find some way,

Because I will be a lion's dinner soon,

My bravery must unfold me,

I really need to run and out I must jump.
