Mente

It kept running...

Faster... Faster... More faster... 

Slowing down was not an option... 

Whenever It tried to slow down It shivered... felt chills through It's spine.. became weaker... 

So It kept on running...

Faster.. Faster... More faster... 

It kept on jumping from one spot to another...

then the next...

again next...
Not staying more than a bit, just a peek, off in a flash...

It was not like that before...

Long before It could stand still or move at a speed of a snail without being afraid...
It could stop back then, run backwards...
It had felt so strong...

But now...
It felt so weak..
Now there was a new danger...
Or a danger which wasn't so gigantic before...
It could feel the warm breath of The Beast behind its neck, getting restless to get a taste of the prey... 

Faster.. Faster.. More Faster... 

The faster It ran, the faster the predator seems to get. 

It took a quick right turn... The Beast took it too... 

It took a quick left turn, then a right turn.. The Beast precisely took both the turns...
It looked into the horizon...
There was the One...
Which kept on running... 
Does it run straight or run in circles? No one knows..
But it was always running...
Still running...
Will keep on running...
Realization of The One was slowing It down...
Beast was so near...
Faster... Faster... No more It could run...
It finally stopped and faced the Beast...
The Beast began to gnaw, bite and chomp on It..
It felt great pain... some pain.. lesser pain.. then It faded off from existence..

The One was still running...

Not a bit faster...

Not a bit slower...

I woke up to my 26th earth year of existence...

Mind started running again, afraid to slow down...

Faster... Faster... More faster...

Boredom, The hideous Beast, just a foot behind...
