Flood

Flood

It won’t stop raining

Rain beats against the tin roof

Sounds like it’s going to cave

It isn’t strong enough to hold

It will flood

The water keeps rising

Worry rushes over me

Soon it will come through the front door

I won’t be able to stop it

It will flood

Daddy always use to say

Everything is going to be ok

He would grab my face

“breathe”

Daddy isn’t here

It will flood.
