I ran

I ran

I ran

Faster

Faster

Faster

I ran as fast as I could

As far as I could

I fell

I collapsed

In the middle of a street

An empty street

An old street

Drops began to fall

Water began to pour

Rain

More liquid fell

Staining my cheeks

But those had nothing to do with the sky

My tears fell

Along with the rain

Drowning my sobs out

I laid down on the street

On the wet street

In the middle of the wet street

And I looked up

At the clouds

The dark clouds

My sight blurry

But not enough

Because I still saw

The bloody truck
