Tell us about....Accident

Firstly, a trigger warning. If you have experienced loss due to a car accident, don't bother reading this. It's just a little poem and not worth any emotional distress it might cause.

I was really at a loss for what to talk about this month so this is all you get:


The sounds in that moment is all I can recall.

A high pitched screech of rubber failing to grip the tar.

Tinkling as glass implodes.

The clangoring of metal concertinaing into the wall.

The order often changes when I am forced to think of that shattering moment. 

I don't see anything, just those noises fill my head

when I look where my leg used to be,

or at the passenger seat, now forever empty.
