Music in my head, rhythm in my heart. My gaze is fixed on you, followed by a wide grin. Green light turns red, but it's neglected. Spite in my head, stubbornness in my heart. Confident steps, legs refusing to stop. "There's still time, I can cross it." Anxiety in my head, hesitation in my heart. Bus driver honks loudly, but I don't feel him hitting the breaks. For a second, intention of retracing steps was firm. Bloodshed in my head, Horror in my heart. Second... A second would have been enough. I'm sorry you had to withness this, but... I'm fine. I'm alive.

On the edge
Music in my head, rhythm in my heart. My gaze is fixed on you, followed by a wide grin. Green light turns red, but it's neglected. Spite in my head, stubbornness in my heart. Confident steps, legs refusing to stop. "There's still time, I can cross it." Anxiety in my head, hesitation in my heart. Bus driver honks loudly, but I don't feel him hitting the breaks. For a second, intention of retracing steps was firm. Bloodshed in my head, Horror in my heart. Second... A second would have been enough. I'm sorry you had to withness this, but... I'm fine. I'm alive.
