What do you do
When a loved one comes to you
With a glock in hand
With a simple demand

You get locked in place
Your heart furiouos beginning to race
The numbing of your mind
You close your eyes hoping you can rewind

Their hands around cold steel

They shake in fear
But the end goal is clear

What do you do when they scream

SAVE  ME

My thoughts were jailed
All I could do was speak with my eyes
Which brought on my demise

Hovering over the lifeless
Crimson painted in a slant
For my eyes spoke,
