Situation 1: You are woman who has been married for over twelve years with two beautiful children. Your family is the most important part of your life and you have just caught your husband and his lover in your bed having sex. You can’t remember exactly how it happened but you are standing over the bed with a bloody knife in one hand and two dead bodies in the bed.
What is going through your head?
What just happened?
Oh my God!
What have I done...
They're dead
I killed them
I killed my husband and this woman
they're dead...
What am I gonna do?
My children
I'm going to jail
All for this sorry mutha fukka
You threw everything we had down the drain
You chose her over all we have
You won't ever hurt me again
(Tears...loud criessss)
I have to dial 911
First, I have to call someone
to come get my children
I don't want them to see him like this
Or this bitch in his bed
In our bed..dead
I can't move them
It'll be evidence
My God, I killed my husband!
Please forgive me, Lord
I just lost it when I walked in the house
and heard noises in our bedroom
I knew the kids were sleep
So, I walked quietly upstairs
Before I reached the door,
I could hear moans
I thought it was a movie
thought he was masturbating
Til I heard her moaning his name
and, I snapped!
I lost it...
it's coming back to me now...
I will leave everything like it is
I'm going to jail
I'm gonna die....
Please, God, let them see he made me do it
I went insane...
Joyce I read the other two already. I must say that in each case you really take us inside the heads of each person. I could envision this lady standing there with knife in hand. The shock, the fear, the pain all seem real as I read each line. Great work sis.
ReplyDeleteJavelle....this exercise was a wake up call to me. Living my life frivilously, and seemingly without care for tohers who are going throughthis. Seems almost sinful to be happy, whenso many are sad...
ReplyDeleteI easily ventured into these situations, because they could have been me. The HIV thing--could be true for me, the one day I fail to play it safe...
NO SEX IS WORTH DYING FOR!
