Steps and breath
Dirt and gravel crunch beneath
Steps and breath
My neck it screams
Ice in my body flows through my veins
Windchill on eyeballs, dry air and blood
Sharp corners of stone in warped angles
Flashes of vision, not all are mine
At the back of my neck
Steps and breath
Not mine, not mine
No boundaries can stop it
Crushing weight behind me
Senseless, panicked, kicking up sand and stone
Aching muscles do not slow me down
I feel it closing in, closer closer
Legs pumping, barely touching ground
(behind bеhind behind behind behind bеhind)
Irregular floorings, hollow bones and rock
(behind behind behind behind behind behind)
Echoes against the too close walls
Behind me, behind me
Its claws closing in
Behind me, behind me
Closing in on my neck, my skull, my self
Where, where, nothing leads outside just walls
And ever more walls, more walls than air
Randomly intersecting and passing, passages ahead
More noises, more steps behind me, behind me
Monstrosities behind me, echoing my steps
No way out, no, no
"Later, awaking outside, this is all I remember."
