Soon enough I fell asleep,
a couple of hours later i'm awoken by screaming and yelling,
Things being thrown and broken,
I was used to it after all, but that night was different, I had a bad feeling.
Like i knew something bad would happen,
I was in my room, closed door, no view of what was going on on the other side of the door.
I heard a pan being thrown and my mom went quiet.
That was the moment I went paralyzed, but I was shaking a lot and crying and I couldn't breathe.
You continued to call my mother names, and started threatening me,
Like you knew I was awake, you knew I was listening.
That night sticks with me everyday, That night I will never forget.
That night I argued with myself,
Contemplating , should I go out there to check on my mom?
Is it safe to go out there?
I felt fear that night like I never had before.
