Challenge
Fear
Rant or tell me about a time you were truly terrified.
trauma-induced rhyme scheme
i told him i didn't need a ride
but insistent, he was
followed me a few miles
in my small white shorts
i really tried to pull of a smile
take few detours
can't shake him off
his red truck creeps behind
16 years old, don't know what to do
thoughts racing through my mind
a neighbors house
knock on the door
damn it, nobody is home
he issues me towards
why did i listen?
nothing happened,
but that situation
taught me never to take
rides from a stranger, though i saw the danger
i'd listen to the things he's say
vulgar and thoughtless
soul-crushing to say the least
but conversely i promise,
you'll never get a ride from me.
