Purified
August 20, 2012
I felt like a deer
In front of a moving car
Overwhelmed
Of what could come
Seeing the headlights
Inching closer
Being trapped
Indecisive
Should I run from my lies
Or stay to face the fact
Being hit full on
To become cleansed of what I've done
Only moments now
But feels as if slow motion
The agonizing wait
Is more painful than the hit
I can breathe on the car
Lies swelling in my head
Being confused
Petrified
Not of what is coming
But who I've become
The astonishing sound
The wrecking collision
Awoke the night
Finally being purified
