Deep within these hollow woods, Always hearing the echo of screams, Remembering the stories told around the fire, K eeping my knife unsheathed as I walk along- Never straying from the path, Ever seeking to return home quickly Silver thread of the moon peeks over the mountain, Scaring me into quickening my steps... Falling shadows darken the gloom, As I began to run, Leaving behind the shadows that follow Listening to my heart beat in my ears Sun sinking rapidly and Darkness Falls...

Retta, I know the feeling. I remember when I was young and saw a scary movie at night, I would run all the way home. Loved your writing. Bill

Falling shadows darken the gloom,
As I began to run,
Leaving behind the shadows that follow
Listening to my heart beat in my ears
Sun sinking rapidly and Darkness Falls...

Well written!!
