For my every word is true
He came in threw the window blood in his eye
All I could do is hide under my bed and cry
He killed my mom and dad
Shooting them over and over that man so bad
He took the pillow and put it over there faces
He watched my mother and father die at diffrent paces
Then he searched the room for money
He let out a little chuckle as if it was funny
Then he left
I rushed to the phone never going into my parents room I couldn't bare the pain
Help I scream they must of thought I was insane
The cops came to the house and they rushed me away
So ill swear on the bible that man sitting there is guilty I say
He is now convicted of murder in the first degree
Every one new it was him it was easy for the jury to see
The next door neighbor was the bad man
Five foot seven inches a man named Dan
He went to jail sentenced to death
I will see to it that electric will take his last breath
I was in my room hiding though
So how would I know
All the details of the crime scene
And remember I never went in the room at all
So I killed them not of hate not of fear just to be mean
But now my neighbor is dead
So all of you that I fulled put a non guilty man on his death bed
Belive me now for this is true
Hey would I lie to you

Wow... the ending of this poem was kinda brilliant... considering the prompt and all. You did a great job with this, and yeah... I did count quite a few misspelled words... so look into using spellcheck as soon as you can!
There was a lot of emotion in this. Thank you for your entry!
