I'm walking through the trees of an old wood. A stick snaps behind me and I freeze. Slowly I turn to see what is there. Standing tall and proud is a great stag. The stag runs at me as I turn to run. I trip on a branch and fall. As I stand to face the stag, it runs at me. It runs into me and disappears into my body. I realize the stag is me. I was running from myself. But no more will I run. I'm ready to face my demons.

Demons
I'm walking through the trees of an old wood. A stick snaps behind me and I freeze. Slowly I turn to see what is there. Standing tall and proud is a great stag. The stag runs at me as I turn to run. I trip on a branch and fall. As I stand to face the stag, it runs at me. It runs into me and disappears into my body. I realize the stag is me. I was running from myself. But no more will I run. I'm ready to face my demons.
