//------------------------------// // Siren // Story: Random Short Poems // by Amiss //------------------------------// Many leaves were blowing Across the darkened night I could feel like something was there, Something remaining out of sight I got up to my hooves In order to look around And that's when I saw it A set of hoofprints on the ground At first I thought them mine But felt frightened (and rather dumb) For then I did realize That wasn't where I'd come from The trees all about me Started to groan and creak As I followed the hoofprints For the source I did seek Nearly half an hour later I found to my dismay That I was back to where I'd started And the prints had gone away I simply said "screw this" With this mystery I was done And started trotting homewards until it became a run I'd been running way too long When I stopped to take a rest And then I saw the same surroundings At that I digressed Why does this keep happening I yelled; running in a straight line I quite frankly was positive That I was mentally fine No, this isn't possible I said coming to the same spot I could only feel like In some labyrinth I was caught Though nopony will read this Still I wish to write How I was lost forever On that endless night
