The familiar taste of fear evaded my taste buds

as my mouth got sticky

from nervousness.

I'd been at the grocery store today.

They had put out search warrants:

Serene Davidson -

Known for running away and self harming for attention.

Mentally unstable,

call this number if you've seen her...

And all I wanted

at the time

was a pack of fruit snacks.

But at that moment,

anger stirred inside

me.

I wanted nothing more

than to sink my nails

into their skin.

And I wouldn't stop

until each and every drop of their blood

was dripping from my hands.
