Bush Walk

In the forest late at night
A bush walk in low light
Until I heard a fright
My heart did beat so hard
In the distance I did hear it
A screech, my lip I bit
Stumble I did, a pit
My heart did beat so hard
A murder of crows fled
Bleed I did
After I slid
My heart did beat so hard
A door I see
I pushed it open, a key
A colony of bats flee
My heart did beat so hard
A gust of wind passed me blind
As it chilled my mind
Another golden key I find
My heart did beat so hard
