2 days, and your corpse aches like 20 minutes.
Your pupils ache,
Opening up to a blur
What happened?
Where are you?
The sun is beaming
You can't remember
What it feels like,
The sun, the warmth,
Getting up,
You're in a meadow,
Gazing around,
Trees like Adam and Eve.
Your body is weak,
Weren't you lastly
In the car.
Your head isn't pounding,
Yet you're pondering.
“Does mom know where I am”
A siren rings,
Your right ear is buzzing
The light of the view,
Attacks your body.
Keep walking,
There's a path.
A white dress,
Like the angels
You're in it.
He’s looking at you,
Hands out,
You look behind,
The scenes vanished,
And so have you.

The idea of waking up, and simply never realizing you couldnt say goodbye. The idea of one not being able to live life to the fullest. As you read, think of the strength to live with no fear towards optimism, cherishment, and freedom. I know I have, thank you.
