Right Behind Me

Right Behind Me

Always looking back to find that I am being followed,
Never stopping once… I keep going forward.
Knowing that it keeps edging closer,
I pick up my pace… otherwise it will get me.
Fear growing… melting into infinite terror,
It will never end… not once.
Soon I will feel pain and anguish,
It is all I deserve… it is my fate.
I have known this for as long as I have been foreshadowed,
There is no turning back… no reason to.

Everything has been decided… just keep going,
Through these endless tunnels I will go.
Not knowing when it will be over,
Forever I will wander… until I drop.
Then it will get me… ripping apart my flesh,
Devouring every single part of me.
It’s right on my heel… drooling something terrible,
It has my scent and will never lose it.
Goodbye this is the end,
I am but its final victim.
