Hush, can you hear it?<\/p>\n
Trickling water pierces the silence.<\/p>\n
Run to the dock and don’t look back.<\/p>\n
The cold concrete underneath my feet cools me down.<\/p>\n
The adrenaline is running hot, like a pot of coffee about to spill over.<\/p>\n
Moonbeams cut through the fog and light the path in front of us.<\/p>\n
In front of us stands a large shadow, solid and wide, like a mighty fir.<\/p>\n
Freeze.<\/p>\n
A quiet and worried, “damn” dribbles from my mouth.<\/p>\n
The moon sits on the peak of the mountain, like a book on a shelf.<\/p>\n
My mouth goes dry, no way out.<\/p>\n
A feeling of hopelessness washes over me, like being stuck in a desert with an empty canteen.<\/p>\n
Shhhhh.<\/p>\n
Run.<\/p>\n
