Coming back
From a land unknown
Far beyond reach
Yet right in front of me
Flashes of memories
Crashes
Faster and faster and faster
They didn't stop at the red light
That red light
They didn't stop at the red light
Less than a foot away
Only inches away
From chaos
Screaming in terror
Then going on like nothing happened
Saved by chance
So what is this?
The one in ten?
What if, then,
If we hadn't seen them coming?
Broken, probably
Bleeding
Shattered glass
Moments flashing
Faster and faster
Until all is but a blur
None shall ever be known
For such didn't happen
They didn't stop
But we did
Just in the nick of time

In the summer, some person ran a red light and almost crashed right into the drivers side of our car. Almost right into my mom.
