Deadly Silence by Juniper Lee (jenna bush book club txt) 📖

No!
The word has already left your lips,
Not said,
But screamed,
You say it again,
Louder,
Trying to make it all go away,
You drop to your knees,
And remind yourself to breath,
You don't want to believe it,
So you close your eyes,
But the same terrible horror,
Awaits you when you open them,
Then tears overcome you,
You try to stop them,
But they bubble forth,
And you cry,
For what seems like hours,
After awhile you try to sit,
In the cold, dark silence,
Because you have no tears left,
You try to compose yourself,
You stand up,
Hardly stable,
You take a stumbling step,
And walk forward,
Until you reach it,
You lay your head on her chest,
With a hope that never began,
You listen,
To the silence,
You knew when you saw,
You didn't want to,
But now you force yourself,
To accept it,
You pick her up,
She lies limp in your arms,
You carry her to her bed,
While her blood drips to the floor,
You lay her down gently,
And leave her there,
In the deadly silence.
