Scary Moments
In the life of a child, stood two men and one died.
Charles was the biological father.
Shorty was the step-dad.
Rich in love this girl was.
However, there was one similar.
Carrie was her mother.
In her mother’s life stood two men.
Both are dead.
The fear has form.
The girl’s mother is now gone.
The similarity brings terror of a self-fulfilling prophesy.
When the world becomes dark, scary moments evolve.
Shorty broke his neck.
Charles did as well.
Jim had a hard time getting along with others.
And, Carter never was in the picture.
My mom and I resembled.
The spirits really modelled in a wall.
Scary moments have evolved.
~A True Story~
