this is where I die
February 14, 2020
3 o'clock I heard a knock on my door
home alone, shaking, ready to die
this means war
no one invades this home of my-
-lights flash in my head
the feeling grows, a pulse of mighty proportion
my hands tremble, we never fled
the villain, I feel his contorsion-
-here I am, in the palm of his hand
crushed, what would it do to escape
now in the forbidden land
stuck, pushed together with adhesive tape
can't stay calm, not even a tad
I regret to inform you it was only my dad
