But now they are almost gone. I depend on His existence more than He knows. He wouldn't be able to comprehend. Just as She doesn't. Her dead eyes flash in my head. I turn down off the sidewalk and I hear a horn. I turn my head. The wind blows. I'm knocked off my feet and I fly in the air. I hit my head. Tires squeal. I lay on the ground as shouts come down. I fall into the dark.
