Hands Up!

I was hoping I would find you hear but instead I found myself struck dumb by the ease with which you could say no and you can't shoot me my hands are up my hands are where you can see and you can trust me my hands are up my hands are up for all to see and I know you meant no harm to me but it feels like cold hands round my neck getting tighter with each draw of breath and I'm walking with my hands above my head it's what you said it's how you wanted it to be don't ask me why
