Last words
I'll never forget how
They came to my house
In the middle of the night
Barging in like they owned the place
I've never liked pigs
They throw around too many accusations
I was scared
I was trembling
I was innocent
She looked like some lost puppy
At one of those awful dog kennels
Eyes huge and watery
Then I felt two cold metal circlets
Hard and relentless
Tight and unyielding
Like a parking space
After some idiot with an enormous truck
Decided to make your life difficult
Leaving one
Dichotomy of matching red ringlets
Encased around my wrists
So minisclule
They might as well just
Slip right out of the cuffs altogether
They forbade of things to come
So strong in my mind was the thought
It reverberated through my entire being
Like the annoying bass of a high school student's car
It was cranked up
To its highest zenith
At some point I thought
This was it
My life was over
That moment she was much like
A rambunctious teenage girl
Whose cellular device was just taken away
I roared at the top of my lungs
"Let me go!" My last words before
The officer shoved me into the police vehicle
The sounds were fascinating to hear
First it was piercing
Then it was muffled
They took her away
To the correctional facility I suppose
I watched until they turned a corner
My phone rang an hour later.
They found the real murderer.
