An Impossible Situation
May 23, 2018
The house is empty,
silent and cold.
Entering my bedroom,
I cannonball onto the bed.
Ignoring all of my homework,
I turn on the TV.
“This show again?”
I hear.
My heart races,
who said that?
For I was home alone…
except for my dog.
“Don’t act so surprised.”
I hear it again.
My dog jumps next to me,
starring in my face.
“Can we watch something else?”
He says right to me.
I quickly change the channel,
too scared to speak.
“Yes, keep this on.”
He says.
“You’re going to be late for school!”
I hear coming from outside my room.
I open my eyes,
finding my dog watching me.
I think “It was only a dream”,
as my dog winks and runs off.
