The way to escape

Deeper to the forest she walks slowly
Feeling that she's lost to what's holy
She's not praying longer, doesn't want
To be on one or another world's front
Deeper in the forest, getting dark
Grass is dry, steps won't leave a mark
Direction isn't clear of where to go
That's what dreamers do and live for
Silent night, only birds sing somewhere
Someone's steps behind, she's aware
Of being here alone but who is this
Chasing her here? Man, devil, beast?
She starts to run, so does the one behind
Not the way she planned to give up her live
Die alone in peace under the Moon cold
Now someone wants to keep her in tight hold
She ran fast and the forest around
Became too deep, light could not be found
Blinded she fell on ground under the tree
Shiver went through, she heard him breathe
Fear got into her, weak she fainted
Last thing she saw was the sky she painted
The day before she left for a walk here
It was clear, Sun was bright and near
Feeling the light like in her dream again
She opened her eyes ready to meet the pain
But there were no pain, no cold or else
She lied on the ground right on the place
Where you enter forest's majestic kingdom
Sun was waking up, she looked at the freedom
She got from the one she was running away
Sometimes your fears are your way to escape
