One Night
I set out on a trip all by myself.
I did not have a map or a ticket I did not know where I was going.
I went alone.
And I stayed alone.
For awhile.
Towards the end of the trip I heard someone coming towards me-
slowly.
And then I heard someone breathing
just around the corner from where I was was walking
all alone.
And then I stopped.
” Someone there? “
I asked.
No one answered.
” Hey! Is someone there? ” I called a little louder.
The breathing stopped and the footsteps came towards me
from around the corner.
I closed my eyes tight and put one foot in front of the other and then I flew towards the breathing and the footsteps and the voices that cried out:
” What the hell was that? ” came the voice from behind me and then below me as I took to the darkness above
” What the Hell was that! “
