• I fell asleep
    I dreamt-
    About a rainy day

    The rain started to pour
    I rocked in a swing-
    Crying aloud
    My aching heart-
    Shattered
    I thought-
    I was dead

    I walked away-
    Memories filled my head
    I felt dizzy-
    Fell down on the grass
    My skirt-
    Muddy
    My black tights-
    wet

    I ran home
    Ran to my room-
    Cried harder
    I walked to the bathroom-
    Which was down the hall
    I took a shower and had new clothes
    With me

    I got out-
    Dressed-
    Went downstairs-
    Sat at the bay window-
    The lattice made diamonds-
    I look behind-
    Then the gun fired
