Mother (trig, incase)

Paralysed
I looked you in the eyes,
As you came at me with a knife,
I couldn’t move,
I couldn’t hide,
And with each stride,
I really thought I was going to die.
You walked across that living room,
My back against a wall,
You came up so close,
And you looked oh so very tall.
I pleaded in my head,
I begged you through my eyes,
For the only sound I made,
Was my heart beating like a train.
I knew my mum was in there,
Somewhere in the dark,
I only hoped she would open her eyes,
Before mine close for a final time.
