Yeah Boy and Doll Face

The boy and girl,

Red, blue, red,

Flashing lights, jarring bright

Blurred vision,

Open my eyes:

Dark dark dark

A brilliantly totaled car,

Shattered windshield

Ambulance singing

He’s hurt

Bad bad bad

Unconscious in the driver’s seat

How long have I been here?

Closing my eyes, all I see are his,

Accusing.

Knowing.

He knows what I did

Was this an accident at all?

Hands in white,

Blindingly pale against the black of night

Blood blood blood

Am I hurt?

Hands pull us out, one by one

He’s worse than I thought

Is he alive?

They’ve taken him from me,

Strapped him in,

Has he ever been so

Still

Before?

This sharp pain in my chest

How will I survive this?

Afraid to see the source of pain

Glance down, peek

I’m…

                Spotless.

How could he be so hurt?

Why am I so hurt?

I rush to him

I can’t bear to leave him alone

Do I…?

If he dies,

I’m sure I’ll share his fate

Well,

I guess…

Maybe I do love him.

Don’t

                Leave

                                Me

                                                Now
