Poem-The Run Through The Ruin

Always after me
Always stalking me
Always behind me
Always in front of me
I close my eyes, I fall asleep
The feeling of death is after me

Its always after me
Its always stalking me
Its behind me
Its in front of me
Only when I fall asleep am I able to see the feeling of death that’s all around me
It takes on many forms
It takes on many fears
Since a child I have always felt it near
It gets only worse
It gets only more fierce
I feel it getting closer, I feel it getting near
It takes on many horrible forms
It takes on many horrible fears

So long ago it invaded me
So long ago it came to me
So long ago it caught up to me
I ran away, I got away, but its still coming for me to this day

The air feels wrong
I cannot breath
Its everywhere
Its all I see
Someone help, someone help me
Its everywhere
Its all I see
Its watching
Its waiting
It will not stop chasing me
The feeling of death is after me
Its always stalking me, relentlessly
The air feels wrong, I feel its presence
I cannot breath, I hear its whispers
Its everywhere, its here
Its all I see, its near
Someone help, someone help me
Its everywhere
Its all I see
Its waiting
Its watching
It will not stop chasing me
The feeling of death is after me
Its always stalking me, relentlessly

So long ago it invaded me
So long ago it came to me
So long ago it caught up to me
I ran away, I got away, but its still coming for me to this day
Part of it, in me, stayed
Part of it, in me, stayed
Part of it, in me, stayed
Part of it, in me, stayed
So long ago it invaded me
So long ago it came to me
So long ago it caught up to me
I ran away, I got away, but its still coming for me to this day

I see shadows of the dead trail behind me
I see reflections of the dead in myself
I do not belong
I should not be alive
Im here when I should not be here
Im alive when I should be dead
I see shadows of the dead trail behind me
I see reflections of the dead in myself
I do not belong
I should not be alive

Its everywhere, its here
Its all I see, its near
Someone help, someone help me
Its everywhere
Its all I see
Its waiting
Its watching
Always after me
Always hunting me
Always behind me
Always in front of me
It will not stop chasing me
The feeling of death is after me
Its always stalking me, relentlessly
