Night(the Kids From Barley Fields) by kegendify: 9:16pm On Nov 20, 2018
Oh night thou art here again.
With the moon as our only guide.
Creatures everywhere lying in wait for preys.
Scaling through is all we pray.

Stars with their twinkling light barely enough for sight.
Vampires thoughts circulating our minds.
Fear of being their drink sinking deep.
Scaling through is all we pray.

Our shadows barely showing.
We started running for the terror was simply much.
howls of hungry wolfs could be heard loudly.
We simply prayed for more strength.
Scaling through is all we pray.

Our destination seemed far.
But we were determined to survive whatever the night had for us.
We all secretly swore not to go out at night no more.
Surely three 15 year old kids going for a party out late was a bad idea to begin with.
we started seeing lights at some distance.
We shared a smile knowing our travails were finally over.
Scaling through is all we pray.

Suddenly

We heard a loud growl.
We knew this was it.
We had been warned.
Going through Barley's forest was a bad adventure after all.
Our courage suddenly failed and we gave up all hope.
We all hoped and prayed kids, our age never tried what we did.
Now we know what will befall us.
Death was here.
It didn't care we were just 15.
Scaling through was all we prayed, but we never did maybe, this was how our young flames was planned to fade out.
