That night

"It wasn't my fault..."

I said as I dug that grave

As I buried their bodys

My shame mixed with that toxicity

What was I going to tell...everyone? That I killed them

Holy shit

Someone was out there

I spun around, holding the shovel in a self-defense like position

A twig snapped

"WHO'S OUT THERE" I called

"Oh oh oh that was dumb" A voice called out it was in a gravelly tone.

It sounded like it hurt.

It sounded...

It sounded like one of them

The kids I killed

I glanced over to my wrecked car...I could make a run for it

I darted to my car

I swung the door open

I went to turn it on

The keys weren't there

I didn't take the keys

I never took the keys out of the car

I could hear a heavy breathing

The sound of someone running

The static of a tv

Wait

Why a tv

There shouldn't be tvs in the woods

Right?

I pulled out my...newly cracked phone

"Shit" I said as I fumbled around trying to turn on the flashlight

It was too fucking dark

When I finally got it on I flashes it out into the forest

Over and over

To make sure no one was there

Make sure

Make sure...

I wouldn't be caught
