Hearing:
The wind blowing through the leaves. Then a soft snap and
deafening crunch. Loud ringing, scrapping shoes against dry concrete, then a
blood curdling scream and running.
Taste:
Foul tasting iron and copper, mixed with mud. The taste of
bitter sweet walnuts still ripe on my tongue. Hints of black cherry Kool-Aid
behind the taste of my own blood.
Smell:
Sweet baking cookies fresh from the oven. Salty sweat from
hours of playing. A sharp tang of blood with hints of fresh cut grass. Some say
concrete has no smell but I swear I smelt it as I laid there breathing in the
smell of warm rocks and sand mixed together.
Touch:
Leaves in grasping hands and a small branch’s bark biting
into my skin. A sharp pain in my head, soreness throughout my entire body like I
had been laying there for ages. Balance shifting to stand up pounding pressure
in my head, soft hair as I inspected my head then a warm sticky substance
gushing between my fingers as I had found the wound I prodded deeper not
feeling anything in my head then the smooth surface of bone.
Sight:
a little parachute man stuck in a tree. A small branch sister
jumping up to grab parachute man failing to grab it gaze shifted up to the sky
sharply. Blackness follows after I met the concrete. My sisters running inside,
my dad running towards me, blackness.
