You open your eye…

Yes eye , you lost your other one to a jagged scar .

You panic .

You then realise it’s not them .

They would of tied the ropes tighter ; no they wouldn’t risk losing you . They’d of finished the job by now .

It’s fine : just another stupid fool . A fool that thinks they can catch you .

Your hands are tied . And your mouth .

A chuckle .

“ Hello Beautiful“

You act asleep . As Harmless you wish you were .

They leave.

Because you are just a child .

A pathetic child that somehow has half the Country hunting them down.

To them you are no threat .

Just because a small mistake by a scientist.

And it could be anyone but they chose you.

Within minutes ,the ropes and chains retreat to the floor .

You can breathe.

It’s fine you can escape anything ( except them )

————————————————

Sometimes you wish the police understood.

That you could surrender and let your mind believe that everything is ok - that you were safe , no ARE safe .

But life is not that simple . Your life is changed because of one small mistake .
