the crime

as I hear the wind howl and roar

the coldness made me shiver to the core

as I walked alone in the street

clouds tumbled like sheets

I pulled my hood over my face

and watched police solve there latest case

there were people in white and blue

all looking for a clue

I saw blood marked crimson across the path

and a axe also sat on the path

I continued on down the road

and ignored the boys asking for a code

as they stood in the gate way to my house

I punched one in the face and he skittered like a mouse

and the rest ran off

with a small cough

I walked inside

and ran to my room to hide

for it was me who had committed the crime

and I didn't want to have to pay with my time

I was to young to be locked behind wrought iron bars

and there was no way I could get into one of there cars

so I sat in my room with my sketch book

and drew pictures no matter how long they took

as long as I stayed quiet I would be fine

but it was my time

and it was coming fast
