lost voice - Changed

She walked up to him

She had to spend time with the family

She couldn’t see him tonight

He started screaming

She took a step back

Knowing

How he was

When mad

He grabbed her arm

Hurting her

She fought back the tears

It’s what he wants

He yelled

Shoving her back against the lockers

She lost it

She could fight no more

Instead she cried

Of heartbreak

He had sworn

Last time

Would be the last

She’d realized it wouldn’t

Do any good to promise

She’d have to regain her voice

For in the sight and sense

Of pain

Lost voice

When I wrote this for my Creative Writing Class my Senior Year, I wrote it out like this, but then i "shaped" it so that if followed a certain way, it looked like the words lost voice written in cursive
