Running Toward Death
i here them bark
 loudly as i run
 i move so fast
 i don't see the sun
 going down
 above my head
 if they catch me
 then i'll be dead
 i run threw the woods
 at full speed
 my necklace snaps
 and i lose the beads
 in the pure,
 white snow
 there's no turning back
 there's nowhere to go
 a branch hits my rib
 the pain is coming fast
 i run toward the future
 away from the past
 i can't run anymore
 the pain is too much
 all i feel now
 is the wind's cold touch
 the air stings my face
 thats covered with tears
 this is way worse
 than any of my fears
 i fall to the ground
 doubled over in pain
 i look ahead of me
 and see a deer has been slain
 maybe thats my fate
 thats why i fell here
 my body is getting cold
 lifeless without cheer
 i close my eyes and
 the dark swallows me whole
 the darkness might take my body
 but the light will have my soul
