Frozen In Bed Frozen In Fear Poem by chelsi Ruffing

Sitting awake late in my bed at night
Shivering something just doesn't feel right
The door slowly creeks open sending shivers thourgh me
The room is to dark to really see
Frozen in my bed Frozen in fear
As a person takes a step closer causing a tear
Heart starts to beat faster fighting to breathe fine
They start walking in a funny line
Reaching my bed standing still where I lay
Unsure of what to say
The suspense has me on edge about to cry
In a flash their hands around my neck with a sigh
They start choking me, putting me in so much agony and pain
Tears flood from my eyes so much like rain
I stuggle beneath the hands to get free
Wishing I could only scream for someone to save me
Then they let go immediately at last
Taking in deep breaths fast
Biting my tongue trying not to scream
Please I wish this were a dream
Holding my hands to my throat unsure
Hopeing its over and there is no more
They walk back now I see their face so clear
Face so mad and twisted with a sneer
Slowly he repeats 'I'm sorry I love you'
I sit there in shock thinking everything through
Trying hard not to cry trying to be strong
Its hard when all of this now feels wrong
Knowing I can't do this anymore
I stand with shaking knees and walk to the door
Turning back with only one thing to say
I can't keep doing this day after day
So for the last time good bye
Then walking out the door trying not to cry
