Life


Don't stop

Run

Faster

They are coming from under the beds, in the closets

"I will not Go!" She screams 

They take over everything

Forcing dreen being the only way

Forcing love to twist evry mind

Forcing fear upon everyone

"Let me stay" she begs

The only way to escape

Only way to leave

Only way to smile

Is to live
