through the silence of the night

I trod along a slippery path in the darkness of night

the cold wind brushed across my face, making me shivered instantly

the eerie silent of the night hides thousand secrets

restless, I tilted my head to the left and right a couple of times

like a little girl trying to cross the street full with cars

although not visible to my naked eyes

I felt as if a dozen pair of eyes were staring at me through the blackness of the forest

I quickened my pace 

my eyes widened in fear

my breathing labored

I no longer trampled

I was running 

from the eyes that gazed through the trees that stood still

as I was running, deep and husky voices echoed in my mind

telling me to keep running until the end

to keep running away from everything

to just put an end to everything

I stopped abruptly and held the nearest tree I could find

my bare hands held tightly against the coarse skin of the tree

sweat streamed down my pale face as I gasped for air

the dusty air clogged my nose 

the strange and unfamiliar voice was still echoing in my head 

reiterating the same message

 my legs were shaking violently that they can no longer bear to stand up

I fell flat onto the surface of the earth

I embraced both my legs towards my quivering body

and rest my head on my knees

I could not bear the noises in my head

they were getting louder as minutes passed

the voices felt closed as if they were saying them right to my face

yet there were nobody there except for me

there were no sounds except for the sound of me breathing the musty air

silence

I slowly regained my strength

I summoned all the energies I have left to get back on the path and see what awaits for me at the end of the endless road

I dare not look back

fearing the eyes would slowly catch up with me

I stood there in the middle of the path of the unknown

staring blankly ahead

anticipating what might happen if I continued with journey

will I run again?

will I fall in the middle of the road?

will I be able to swallow the ending and the answer from this journey?

I do not know

for I have not yet reach the end of the road

my eyes blinked away the tears that almost fell onto the dirt

anxious, I walked tardily along the path

again, I trod through the darkness of night

in silent.
