The Nightmare that Became Real

The Nightmare that Became Real

A Poem by Arianna Dean
"

Is it a memory or a nightmare?

"

The crush and grind

As two objects collide

The fear

It has become real

The screech of a tire

The tinkling of glass

Scream

If I can

The crunch of metal

Then the silence

I remember

The shock

It has begun

The sirens

The ER

It passes in a flash

The people there to comfort

Don’t understand

About the pain

Physically and mentally

The tears rolling down my cheeks

As you realize

It was my fault

They almost died

The impact of it

I can’t look into their eyes

Later they start to joke about it

It isn’t funny

They continue to laugh

When I get mad

They don’t understand

I refuse to join the fun

Still they laugh

Like it’s a joke

They don’t understand

They never will

I can’t talk

I can’t speak

The memory of it hurts

The pain too great to bear

It’s not funny

It’s a nightmare that became a memory
