Chereads / The Not So Empty Paper / Chapter 6 - Breaking Windows

Chapter 6 - Breaking Windows

I was walking down the street one night,

When I saw a rock upon the floor.

And when I stopped, I threw the rock

Right through the window of a store.

My arm was cut, I ran away;

Drops of blood fell to the ground.

I ran back home, then away again,

The DMV is where I was found.

They came and saw what I had done,

I lied about my age, my name.

If she found out about this thing,

I knew nothing would be the same.

I fibbed, then lied, then lied again.

My story changed from that to this.

And I could tell by their voices

That they were starting to get pissed.

I felt the wind brush my face,

The scent of blood met my nose.

They found where I lived, then took me away

Off to a hospital then got me some cloths.

They patched me up and asked more stuff,

They weighed me and gave me a bath.

Gave me food and got my trust

And then I told them about her wrath.

I told the cops my age, my name.

And parts of what she had done,

I got in the car with the blanket they gave,

And arrived at the hospital with the morning sun.
