lost in the woods
all but still
legs running for shelter
she stops at the hill
gasping for breath
her voice at a loss
the darkness surrounding
her life it will cost
the creatures are coming
their sounds gettin near
her knees buckle with fright
as the fear spills her tears
the dark is a blanket
it covers her eyes
her movements unseen
but alive are her cries
the dark kills the girl
as her body disappears
another night unsolved
filled with trauma and fears
