Number Three

Tic
Tock
Tic
Tock
The clock swings.
Ding
Dong
Ding
Dong
The bell rings.
My thoughts race,
My feet quicken pace
Step (step)
Step (step)
Step (step)
It’s getting close,
I hear it behind me.
Will this be over?
I want to flee, please.
Breaths are heavier
Movements,
Delicate feathier.
Dark we face,
A most horrifying place
Time has stopped.
Tic
Tock?
POP.
It goes.
It flows.
From the tips
Of its toes.
Is it with me?
What has happened?
Am I free?
Or still trapped?
Step…
Step…
Step…
