“Why Did You Stay?”
Asked my Court Appointed Advisor about the gun incident

Thoughts offer no protection
When staring down a barrel
At ammunition
Screams offer no solution
When facing your own abrupt
Annihilation
“Fight” offers no prevention
When you act in self defense
He hits you harder
“Flight” offers no salvation
When a slim corridor means
A straight shot for him
“Freeze” offers no direction
When your life flashes before
Seen ten times or more
So what is a girl to do?
Either sit back in the chair
Or lie on the floor
