A distant scream

A distant scream is heard..
A distant dark  dream festers in me.
It pounds, it gags as I choke on this new poison..
A long howl of mortal terror is heard in the sickening wind.
I travel my dark forest,
With cuts,
With bruises,
And broken bones.
The air combing my hair with it's long chilly nails.
The leaves stopping my flow of blood from my feet.
As I reach for you, but my arms aren't strong enough.
I needed you, and you needed me.
But now that's just a distant blood gurgling scream.
For this is the regret I feel, for letting you go.
I'm sorry... My imp from this dark forest.
