Today's prompt is to write about what haunts you, then change "haunt" to "hunt." I am hunted by a figure
Lean and lithe. She is faster, Stronger, And smarter than I. So I know She will catch me. She is passionate, And maybe I can use that to my advantage, But she is also Driven And wears her confidence like wings. I cannot Compete, But maybe She will fall Like Icarus before her. Though, I do not wish it, Not really. I am hunted by a figure Patient and kind, And maybe I should stop running, For I know (Because I know her Because I was her) She would only love And accept me As she loved And accepted everyone Else. So I yield, Weary, And bend to catch Our breath.
