Screaming

She heard his voice. She listened to the words The Words He spoke. She could hear the pain. The sadness. In his voice When she heard. Him speak She saw him. His eyes were. Bloodshot and Red He walked towards her. So he could give her a hug She walked slowly towards him She didn’t know how to feel A million and one thoughts. Were running through her head She was looking around and saw it The white van with. The paint peeling off The van she made all of her memories in She walked slowly towards the van She saw a lump under a blanket She walked towards the blanket Then she saw something bright She heard the bright object being opened Then she saw it. The pale skin The open eyes. The blood. The open mouth For a split second. She looked Then she screamed. A terrible horrifying scream She couldn’t breathe. Her eyes were swollen. Her nose was red She was on sitting on her mother's lap while. She screamed. She didn’t know how to stop. But she stopped, not remembering how.
