nightmare

[volume_____up]

i saw your face that night,
as they pulled the sheet over his body,
puddles of blood filled the pavement,
you stood there shaking,
with everything blurred out,
brudle thoughts of how you let this happen raced though your head,
all the storys you've heard before,
became your living reality,
that night you lied in bed,
wide awake; with emptiness, and guilt,
for hours you prayed, that you would wake up from this living nightmare,
if only he had another chance...
