I can't remember anything,
I don't know what happened,
I saw everything flash in front of me like an old time movie,
Then,there was nothing,
I woke and saw faces leaning in over me,
One of them had tears,
Others had smiles but deeply darkened eyes,
They said things i couldn't understand,
Then,I saw it all,
I saw the car coming at me but instead of headlights i saw my friends,
Everyone i knew was there,
I didn't understand why my arm and leg were in a cast,
No one would tell me what I was doing in such a bright room,
They left and I saw a nurse,a mask,then,nothing,
I woke up and it was dark but still a sliver of light trickling into my room,
Someone was beside me but it was to dark to tell who,
I remembered everything in a flash,
It all came back so fast,
The other car,the blood,my phone,it was ringing i heard someone a dim voice far away from me,
But I saw lights then people but I couldn't move,then I heard the sirens,
I knew where I was and I knew who was with me,
It was tonya,
I remembered it was Sam I heard and it was Drew who was crying,
I heard something,someone moving,there was more light and then the nurse again
She said something about sleep,
Tonya stirred and I fell back asleep,
I wanted to be at home,in my own bed,safe,
I wanted to talk to someone,to know everything was fine and I was safe,
I know I must be safe because I'm in the hospital,
But still I wasn't convinced,
I wanted to know if my car was worth getting fixed,
I want to be anywhere....but here.
