The Fear He Gave Me
One sentence is all it took.
No more words could I utter.
Out my window I was scared to look,
My stomach was all a flutter.
I stayed up all through the night,
Thinking to myself,
“If he were really to come,
Could I put up a fight?”
My eyes started to close, but,
I mustn’t go to sleep, because,
Where I live is what he knows.
Why is it he is such a creep?
The morning finally came.
I was now able to breathe right.
Last night he did not come,
So for now, I am safe.
