Uncertainty

The sound she heard before was deafening Curiosity made her seek the sound Thinking it was an act of joking Up the stairs she began to look around Not seeing anything at first she called out Not getting a response she began to worry The closer she came to the door Her heart began to beat a little more There was moment she started to care A distance is showing in her stare Her eyes begin to water the more she sees Slowly beginning to fall to her knees Looking down ever so cautiously There was warmth she never noticed beforehand The picture started to show more clearly It was like a river of red before her She finally landed on the floor Slowly turning up her hand The warmth and red she was in is blood Emotions are beginning to flood Silence is louder than a scream Praying she was just in a dream Carefully she pulled herself through the door Looking around it was like a scene from a movie Blood, gun, and boy on the floor Was it true did he do the unthinkable? Could he really have just taken his own life? The sight before her was unpalatable Tears started falling like rain Overwhelming feeling of fear and pain Was his life filled with such strife? Sure he hurt her in a way that caused her to end things But never had she imagined he’d gotten to that point Life shows things you do uncertainty it brings!
