Sand

They are running from here
Fast away from the night
The approaching darkness bringing silence
To the world of the living.
Really they know
Deep inside their hearts they know
All things will be alright
But as they run
Imagination of evil
Causes fear.
They run harder
Fleeing the darkness
Afraid life is short
Afraid it will end.
As it catches them
Devours them
They realise
The darkness is no curse
But blessing.
Together they sleep
In the sand.
