Saving Ev

As I was going to bed,

I heard loud

shouts directed at Ev.

I ran outside to the front,

girls yelling words

mean and blunt.

Girls punching Ev,

I did break in,

and make sure Ev

got air to breathe again.

Then I broke away and

ran towards the door,

along with Ev,

girls running after all four.

The door did shut

but girls were strong,

cops came fast

before too long.

A shoe was left outside,

girls thought we were

trying to hide.

The cop pressed charges

and girls went to court.

Ev 'let it go' that was his retort.

Now Ev says if I hadn’t jumped in,

there would be no more left of him.

Thank God I did or I would be left

with less one friend.
