'Someone..'

By Monkei

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I hear my feet, pounding heavily on the cement. My breath comes in gasps now, My chest is on fire. I can hear him, He's coming closer, Catching up, Soon he will have me. I know I can't run forever, And I know he'll never stop. I'm going to fall soon, "Someone help me!" I stumble 'round a corner, And he grabs at my flying hair. He comes out with a fist full, And I topple to the ground. He stops, Looking down at me, He laughs bitterly, And I know, that it's over. I've lost, I finally fell. Now he knows he has me, And I can't get away. "Someone help me!" But there is no one there, It is just us, I am defenseless. Tired, and hurting, I cannot fight back. There is nothing I can do now. But scream, "Someone help me!" There is a pain In my side.. His foot, Buried in my ribs. Frantic now, Knowing not what to do, I yell, To the people who are not there. There is nothing. "Someone help me!" "Please! Someone help me!" But there is no one. Written March 30th, 2002 © on Mar 30 2002 02:28 PM PST, Katie   0 • 10
