I come upon a rickety old bridge,
glancing down I wonder what it
would be like to float free.
Free of this life and all that it brings.
That would be something else entirely.

Lost in thought, I soon realize
I'm being watched. Looking to my right,
I see a tall faceless figure in between
the barren trees. It just stands there
staring at me. What does it want?

I move along the bridge, my heart
racing at every step. I hope my time
has not come, for I want to leave on
my own accord. I stop just short of a rotting
board. I hear nothing but eerie silence.

My heart still racing, I turn around, noticing
the figure is there no more. What could
this possibly mean for me? Is it really
my time? Am I being lead to my untimely demise?
These questions remain unanswered.

Next thing I know, I fall through the floor.
The last thing I see before I hit the water below,
is that figure again even slender than before.
The last face I'll ever see is that faceless figure staring back
at me. The Slenderman.
