smiling
listening
talking
kissing.
screaming
anger
harsh words
a danger.
fights
rows
the plod
and crowds.
upstairs
bathing
voices
calling.
shouting
pleading
me
not listening.
downstairs
robed
beneath
unclothed.
voices
loud
echoing
yells.
running
tripping
almost
slipping.
crying
wailing
screeching
swaying.
blood
mark
mark
blood.
falling
crashing
his head
smashing.
ambulance
sirens
blue
and flashing.
then my life went black.
