via Cling
Lost in the wilderness, darkness descends
the winds howl and eerie sounds emanate all across,
Fear grips my soul and my body shudders,
sweating profusely, in spite of the cold
I try to call out for help, but my voice abandons me.
With all efforts failing and no choice left,
I cling on to my belief and pray fervently,
to send help my way.
The bell rings and I open my eyes
and I am flooded with relief,
to realise it was after all
a terrible nightmare!
Well said. Short and gripping.
