OPEN
I feel incredibly alive as I tell my friend on the phone I'm on my way
before a truck boulders down the street
close
OPEN
I hear loud beeps and voices
A bright florescent light blinds me as I fail to speak
the beeping speeds up with the beat of my heart
close
OPEN
I can't feel anything. I can't move. I hear crying, but I can't turn to look.
I stare at the popcorn ceiling, wordless again
close
OPEN
I can't move. I can't speak. I can't see anything but darkness.
No one says anything for what seems like forever
close
OPEN
I can barely hear a single voice whimper.
"Pull it."
Sounds of movement. Crying.
"Goodbye."
I feel myself fade away as my senses come back full force. I reach towards my friend, she looks old, pleading.
"Wait no-"
then the silence comes back. I can't do anything.
