Followed in the Night.

 

I walk along the street,

The night is dark and foreboding,

There is somebody behind me.

I walk faster,

So do they.

I turn to confront them,

But they are gone.

I continue my journey,

Walking ever faster,

Turning suddenly,

But they are still not there.

I reach home safely,

My breathing returns to normal,

My mind calms,

And in that moment I realise,

I realise that all that was following me

On that dark foreboding night,

Were the words on this page.
