Innocence


I should have never said yes

before I knew it

to the car we went

strapped my seatbelt

innocence


I should have never said yes

as the car's speed inclined

he protested the drive

letting anger decide

revised


I should have never said yes

forced out of the car

demand


I should have never said yes

his door locked behind

frozen


I should have never said yes

his hands on mine


alone


I should have never..


no
