Stories
By: J. Michelle House
Growing up with lots of secrets kept them locked inside
A great deal of confusion, in Heaven she would hide
Childhood fears of monsters and ghosts
Human nature she feared the most
A world where evil things take place

She always had a story....Just in case
She made sure it was hidden
F
or She had been forbidden
To expose her grown up knowledge for everyone to see
Things are not always what they appear to be
She'd wake up crying from a dream

Not remembering what she had seen
Visions of terror raced through her mind
Blocking out memories that one day she'll find
A cold distant place
She couldn't erase
She felt herself frightened but didn't know why
Her heart pounding fast as she heard her own cry
She had to tell what happened
They were sure to find out

Yet her urge to tell somebody was killed by self  doubt
Coming close to killing her, driving her insane
He thought he got away with it because then she was so young
But one day she will find her peace after he is hung
