The Life of Me

May 20, 2014 5:27 p.m.

I could hear the footsteps coming up the stairs

Hoping they wouldn’t come into the room

but when I looked up it was him standing there

He had a frightened look on his face

As if he had walked in on something he shouldn’t have seen

He said oh sorry and headed for the door

In return I said you can stay in here if you want

But he quickly ran out the door

and over his shoulder he said no thanks

 And my heart sank
