There's nothing in the rearview mirror but the fog I passed,
No shapes forming or sounds that are unfamiliar,
Yet inside the stomach churns and contrasts,
Why does it feel like the eyes that seem to watch are familiar?
Hanging in the air like the sound after a gun shot,
The air feels thick to breathe and unappealing,
Behind and ahead the back road is forgot,
And still I'm unable to shake the watched feeling.
Rap music is blaring from the speakers seeks to destroy,
It makes me keep my eyes on the road, yet nothing coincides,
Concentrating on the road and on the lyrics that annoy,
The breathing calms down and yet not the feeling besides.
Out of nowhere a truck is on the bumper, it's headlights blaring,
It's three times the size of my small car and roaring,
As if from a nightmare it's there, not at all caring,
There's no where to go and the visibility gone, and it's flooring.
Adrenaline starts pumping through every vein,
Blood is pounding inside my ears drowning out the noise,
Every extremity trembling with terror, new heights it attains,
Out of the blue the car takes the first hit and the air bag deploys.
Losing control the car goes down into a deep ditch,
I'm no longer in sight of the road, trapped beneath trees,
Fear is at an all time high, I realize I'm in a pinch.
Will the truck's driver come after me here to appease?
The cell phone of course has no signal, it never has out here,
Suddenly the drive I needed to take to calm myself,
Has ended in the disaster I never imagined would appear,
I can't get out of the car, all the doors are jammed on theirself.
To keep myself from screaming I try desperately with the phone,
One message through is all I need right now,
Kicking out the back window of the car I feel I'm not alone,
I slide out and tumble the length the trees will allow.
The trees above my head start to move,
My unexpected visitor has arrived,
There is no where to hide and I have nothing to prove,
Slowly and quietly I limp behind a tree, feeling slightly revived.
But In my head I recognize my end has come,
I'm more scared than I ever thought I would be,
And in the end all I am is numb,
Sadly I realize he can see.
Then out of nowhere he steps around the tree,
And after he hits me and I lay dying,
All I can think in my mind as I grow week in the knee,
Is that "I love you" and for once I'm not lying.
