Tonight.

Last night I heard them fight,
In my bed while trying to sleep.
I heard a slap like t h u n d e r
And my brother began to weep


I saw two strangers in the hall
One mother and one father
I Turned to The Kitchen door
As he h i t her harder


He took my name I panicked
A Knife held in my hand
Through my neck I pushed it deep
And felt b l o o d as it ran


Lilly , they say again,
I'm scared and barely 12
Mum and Dad, I'm sorry
Tonight I k i l l e d myself.
