Hide and Seek

She says play hide and seek she says it will be fun so I hide quietly under the bed Until the counting is all done 5...4...3...2...1... Ready or not here she comes My heart beat is so loud it seems It's pounds inside my head Until the sound of creeking feet Start coming towards the bed These feet aren't hers These feet are bigger I lay there contemplating Who When Where And how Until the feet just creek away My heartbeat begins to slow But The next thing that I know Is the feeling of my heart dropping From my chest Down to my toes As he drags me from beneath the bed With watching eyes I see her stare Not a smile not a frown Does she even care My close were torn my heart was broke And still the memories I can't bear All it was is a painful waiting game Leaving me with nothing But the feeling of hurt, hate and shame.
