A/N: Howdy! This is the other author, just wanted to let you know there's two of us haha. You may know me as the one that writes the Harry Potter fanfiction, the other book we have currently. Just wanted to post a poem that I wrote and I'm kinda proud of. Thanks!

Running, running, running

Heart in mouth, lungs collapsing,

Must keep

Running, running, running.

I run faster. What if he's already-

No, no. It hasn't struck twelve yet.

Almost there, one more corner, and-

He's not there. I've stopped

Running, running running

But.. why isn't he here?

He should be here!

SHE SAID HE'D BE HERE!

...

I turn on my watch.

"Hex? Why isn't he here? Where-"

But all I can hear is

Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing

Inside my head.

I collapse. My legs have had enough. No more

Running, running, running.
