The Murder

"Huh, huh, huh," she gasps for breath
While she hides in her closet.
The man scavenges the house trying to find her
He's accompanied by his deadly weapon
She doesn't know what's going on
All she knows is that she wishes she were safe
She's sweating like crazy
Her heart is thumping.
She wishes for this maniacal man to leave her be.
Then the most dreaded thing happened
"RING RING!"
Her cell phone went off.
She fumbled to silence it
Though she knew it was the end
The running had stopped
And he walked toward the closet, now holding his weapon
The door slowly creaked open
BANG!
Her heart stopped
She was now lying on the floor
The man walked away, victoriously thinking it was the end
However, it was just the beginning.
