Struck
January 17, 2014
So, I just went for a casual skate. It lasted about 2 minutes.
The first minute was okay, but in the second minute,
I glanced behind me
A car
I turned my head back, to get out of the way.
Beep, beep.
Oops.
Eyes are flickering open, while others are fighting tears
Beep
Beep
Beep
Fluorescent lights are blinding, and the doctors’ voices are deafening
Yet I feel everything,
I feel everything so clearly
I have been struck.
