An Awful Day

trees everywhere i look never looking back have to keep my eyes on the track i am a 16
year old girl who has seen and dealt with the worst the blood of my parents  all over my
hands strange men chasing me leaving everything behind my friends relatives i can not even
have contact with them i am scared to death i cant feel my legs i swear my feet are
covered in blood from the glass on the streets about two hours ago i saw my parents get
shot in the head i am never going to have a normal senior year i don't have a mom to lay
with a dad to protect me all i have is a picture of them and the clothes on my back  these
men are shooting to scare me and saying "get her kill her now" om running then all of a
sudden a rock  trips me and i look up  right then and there he was going to shoot me and
then i hear a bang but i was still alive the cops saw and took me to the hospital they
said there going to have me live with my grandparents and i will be going home in a couple
of weeks but i will never forget this day all i got was a broken arm and a broken ankle
but what happened to my parents was the worst and i will never forget them and if i ever
so see the man who got a way he will see the darkside come out of me i will do the deed
that my father should have
