Fleeing From Shadows
Companion Piece to Chasing Shadows?
It’s the hour before dawn.
The space we’re hiding in is cramped. Our flushed bodies are pressed together with rising and falling chests punctuated by shallow breathing.
Please don’t find us.
You stand still with your back against the collapsing wall. You grab my shoulders and hold me to still any movement. I turn my head slightly to look back.
The specter of a dark-robed figure appears just beyond our hiding place. A hint of blood-tainted white peeks out from under the hood.
I press my face into your thin shoulder and our callused hands grapple to hold each other.

Not that I minded, of course.
