An attack
Deanna Shilkus
I was scared for my life.
Running from my biggest fear.
He came at me with a knife.
I felt like I was a deer.
Why is he doing this?
Is he crazy?
Can't he see my tight fist?
But he gave me a daisy,
I thought he loved me.
I was afraid to tell him
of the things that I did
and that's why he attacks in
the dim.
