Quatrain of Traveling Pest - 11842

Traveling Pest

I took a journey when I didn't have a
place to go, I wanted to travel
far away and relax for a
while,

I walked along a winding road up hill
without stopping, I trudged with
heavy heart every hard
mile.

When a day finely passed and nothing
new was seen, I noticed trailing
me was a sinister
pest,

I had planned a journey by myself, a
fight ensued, then he was dead,
I didn't need a traveling
guest.
