Part 1

I've got a mark on my neck.

From the seatbelt.

I've got a sore head.

From the window.

I've got a thudding in my heart.

From the adrenaline.

I can't close my eyes.

I see flashes.

Trees.

A fence.

My ears can still hear my scream.

My neck can still feel the strain of whiplash.

***

My eyes have cried and have gone dry.

My body is still tense.

And the feeling may not wear off for a while.

Because it has happened again.

Again.

A-fûcking-gain.

Because that is two times this year.

Because the third time- I might not so lucky.

And I'm scared.
