Iโm in my bedroom. Iโm sitting on my bed.
I canโt help but think about you, and how perfect we would be together.
I know youโre way too good for me.
I hear the doors slam, voices scream.
I know I have other worries.
Theyโre fighting again.
I want to go away.
I do not have a girl like figure.
I hate my laugh.
Iโm thinking of how good it would feel to have friends.
Iโm alone.
I have never hurt myself on purpose.
But I think about it. And I think about
What it would be like,
And what it would do to me.
Theyโre still fighting.
I want to leave.
He slaps her.
She shoves him away.
They wonโt shut up,
Will not stop.
I donโt want to be here.
I creep out to the garage, unnoticed.
I can hear them fighting.
Even from all the way out here.
Iโm going to leave.
Thereโs a bike.
Itโs a motorcycle.
Itโs mine.
It will be mine.
I donโt know how to ride.
Iโm going to leave.
They donโt have a clue.
Up and over, turn and lift.
Itโs on.
Itโs backing out. Itโs running.
I shift the gears.
Iโm barely tall enough to reach.
Itโs loud. I pull the right handle down. Iโm off.
In the mirror I see them come out of the house.
She collapses. He just stares.
Iโm gone.
Going fast.
Not slowing down. Iโm out on the road.
Iโm all wobbly.
I canโt stop. Iโm too scared to stop.
Red light. I canโt stop.
I canโt stop. Canโt stop.
I speed up. I go head-on into the middle of traffic.
I canโt stop.
I crash.
Theyโre not fighting right now. Not that I can hear.
Face up. I see blue. Turn I see red. I see gray. I see nothing.
I hear horns. I hear screams. Voices. Sirens.
I hear nothing.
