The Skateboard 

It was dark because of the night

I fell off a skateboard and I felt like I was in flight.

I fell and hit my head and all I saw was light. 

I scraped my back and felt a mighty ouch.

I walked up the street and sat on a couch. 

All I smelt was the pavement when I hit the floor.

The feeling of pain rushing through my body.

I looked at my shirt and it was all bloody.

I asked Jared if he would rush inside and grab me pain meds.

When I hit the ground a neighbor asked if I was good.

I shook my head yes and wiped off the blood.

The look on Jared's face was one I've never seen.

My arms hurt so bad they were paralyzed with pain.

I hurt so bad I wanted to scream.

But I hit the ground so hard I couldn't speak.

The ground knocked the wind outta me.

The pain was intense but so was my disappointment. 

I walked into school with a wrap on my arm. 

Everyone asked what's wrong but I kept my head down. 

I've never felt so ashamed of myself.
