THE GHOST I CAN'T SEE

Walking alone in the early hours in the dark of night...

Rustling noises close behind...

I turn and see not a soul surrounds me...

No wind to make the sound that made look to see...

That it is still only me...

A feeling comes over me...

A warning comes...

Don't look back and...

Don't look down...

Heartbeat slightly raises...

Keep a steady pace...

Footsteps now not far behind...

The man now behind moves in he strikes and...

Attacks me to the ground...

He doesn't speak a word...

Time stops...

Preserving my energy and laying as if I am already dead...

Something spooks the man away...

Was it the ghost that I can't see?

How do I give thanks for saving me?

Left there all alone...

Bleeding, bruised, and with a swolen face, my heart is still beating...

Reminding me I am still alive...

To the Ghost I can't see...

Thank you for saving me...

Hugs...

Hello Richard...

I've had a few run ins...

Always in the City...

This particular time I was in my friend's driveway...

They had the stereo blasting and couldn't here what was happening until there was a break in the music...

My friends Brother heard the commotion and he came running to help me, and the person could not be identified whoever it was got away...

Two years later my friend's Brother was killed by a train...

Thank you for your comment...

Hugs...

Hello Flower Girl...

Fear Nothing!

Whoever the person was must have thought it was my first rodeo...

I think they were more shocked than me...

RULE #1 DO whatever you can do to not go to a second location with your attacker...

RULE# 2 Don't Panic!

RULE # 3 When it comes to survival you do the best you can there are NO GUARANTEES...

RULE # 4 Somethings are worth fighting for and...
Somethings are not...

Don't waste your energy on the NOT...

Home was not always the best place and...

You can't always walk with a Buddy...

Thank you for the comment...

Hugs...
