Riding my motorcycle, music whispering through my AirPods, the drizzle kisses my skin, but I keep going. Then the rain thickens, thunder growls like a beast in the sky, and I don’t speed up. I let the storm catch me, daring it to take me, wishing, maybe, it would. But deep inside, I fear it too. Not the dying but the thought of not dying instantly. A cruel hesitation, a war between surrender and survival. How pathetic, how fragile. I was only going 20 km/hour, while I Love You So by The Walters played like a farewell, or maybe, a reminder that I was still here.

Between Rain and Thunder
Riding my motorcycle, music whispering through my AirPods, the drizzle kisses my skin, but I keep going. Then the rain thickens, thunder growls like a beast in the sky, and I don’t speed up. I let the storm catch me, daring it to take me, wishing, maybe, it would. But deep inside, I fear it too. Not the dying but the thought of not dying instantly. A cruel hesitation, a war between surrender and survival. How pathetic, how fragile. I was only going 20 km/hour, while I Love You So by The Walters played like a farewell, or maybe, a reminder that I was still here.
