adrenaline
adrenaline, rushing through my brain, as i try to comprehend the world around me
people rushing to places, constant talking
i feel trapped
lonely.
unable to escape, this trance holding me captive.
i watch as a child cries.
the mom stares at her phone.
nothing.
the wails, getting louder, and louder
until it all stops.
the child is stopped amidst their crying.
people are in the middle of the crosswalk.
the people's belongings floating up to the sky, but their owners staying put.
the sky turns black, shooting red thunderbolts across the sky.
they're finally here.
