I Killed Someone

I’m not sure if I knew
Him or her..

I’m not even sure
How I killed that person.

But I know,
Someone was there with me.
No idea who, but I call her “hana”

I don’t know if she helped me with it
Or was just a witness

But we ran away together.

We took the black van
And drove it halfway to the airport.

Changed vehicle to a motorcycle.
(So the police couldn’t track us)

We were passingby a wet market,
When I noticed the police coming.

And before they even see us,

Hana grabbed me and we hurriedly
Got on the motorcycle.
She told me to hang on tight
As she drove fast and reckless,
Losing the police.

Our plan was to go
Out of the country before the police
Even suspected us.

We will leave,
And live our life somewhere.
I don’t know exactly where,
But just not the prison.

In the middle of the drive,
Hana said she was tired,
And told me to drive.

I didn’t like the idea,
But I did anyways.

I drove slowly and cautiously.
Scared.
That if ever the police was onto us,
I wouldn’t be able to drive as good as hana.
We’ll get caught.

Now far from where we’re from,
And real close to the airport.

We decided to take a break.

We went in to a house,
Who knows whose.
And we slept for a night.

I woke up and immediately
Got ready for the drive.

I was waiting outside for hana.

As hana was leaving the house,
He noticed someone inside
A room with slightly opened door.

He seems oblivious to what was going on.
He was sleeping.
Soundly.

She couldn’t see his face
But she said she knows him.

She ran out the house, towards me
And told me she wants to stay.

I was surprised.
I argued with her.
She can’t stay. She won’t be safe.

She said she’ll be fine.

I was so mad at her.
I couldn’t believe
She would choose to stay for a stranger.

I wanted to leave.


————————————

In hindsight,
I could’ve just left her
And leave the country.
But in my dream, 
We either have to stay together
Or leave together.

In the end,
I didn’t know which path we took..
