Trees,
trees,
trees
Branches,
sticks,
leaves
Whipping,
gashing,
slashing at my arms
I can't get away no matter how fast I run
Tripping,
falling,
crawling on the floor
Ragged cuts,
tattered clothes,
jagged breathing as I start to slow
My eyes are heavy,
my vision blurred
Distant images start to stir
He's right behind me,
he's catching up
I have to keep moving,
but my legs have had enough
Getting dizzy,
about to pass out,
a distant figure starts to stand out
A distant scream,
a whispered plea,
I can't believe
it came from me
Pulse is racing,
a feeling of hands,
a gentle hush
I'm helped to stand
It's him,
he's caught me,
please strength don't leave me yet
Let me be anything but his sullied pet
I have to leave,
I have to get away,
I fall to my knees and let my head sway
Stopping,
he stares at me
and gives a mirrored laugh
Then he reaches for me as I start to move back
I'm to slow,
he's to fast,
I can't get away,
he's taking me back
I can't let this happen,
I must react
Head's too fuzzy,
I'm getting too weak
I'm stumbling over my own feet
One chance,
a pull,
a twist,
a pop
and a moan
I'm not the one with a broken bone
I'm still running, he's still coming
My strength's about to give out
Dead end,
cliffs end,
water and rocks below
Tell me, if you had a choice which way would you go?
