Chapter 12: Touch

I was walking home,

How frightening it still is,

As I walked,

I felt as if,

It is a never,

Ending maze.

I wanted to scream out,

But I,

Kept,

My composure.

For my mom,

And for myself.

The taunting darkness it falling,

Over me.

But I forgot all about it,

When I saw,

I strong,

Male back,

Ahead if me,

So mysterious,

And compelling at the same time.

I started walking a bit faster,

Reached my hand out,

But never touched him.

As he got farther,

I stared into the sky,

And felt the stars,

Brightly,

Looking my way,

And my heart,

Calmed.
