Blind Fate

in poetry •  8 years ago 

Nightmares are his reality
Dreams awaken his true mortality
Running from unseen shadows
Silent voices call to friendly foes
Sweat dripping from his brow
Fearful, staring into the dark
He slowly quickens pace
Reaching for the emptiness to pull him forward
Smiling sadly, knowing they're closing in
Fighting to stay alive becomes his demise
Death is his immortality
