FLASHES

Raindrops

on your eyelashes,

tender touches on your cheeks,

hair brushed aside,

your loving smile,

despite your worried eyes,

with hands intertwined.

The rain kept pouring,

the radio kept playing,

outside the wind kept roaring,

while you kept driving.

In a blink of an eye,

a flash of light,

the sound of horn blaring,

metal on metal beating,

tire screeching,

a loud sound,

the warmth of an embrace-

darkness.
