What's Her Story #12 - Frozen To The Spot
The screams rang out,
Piercing my eardrums, and my soul.
The night's sweltering heat
Added to the stickiness
Of the iron-clad blood
Assaulting my nostrils.

I was frozen to the spot,
Despite the sweat dripping
From my pale, shocked face.
My heart beat, beat, beat
'Til it broke through my chest.

"Ma'am? Please step aside,
And come with me. We're
Investigating this ghastly crime."
He took me by my shaking shoulders
And led me out of the broken door.

I collapsed into his arms,
As the shots still rang in my ears.
