She was 12.


12


She didn’t see the car.


She didn’t notice the red blurry about to hit her.


She didn’t notice the speed the person hit her at.


She didn’t notice she was in the hospital.


She didn’t notice she was going to die.


She didn’t notice she had died.


In the hospital, with me holding her hand.


She didn’t notice the dreadful silence as she flatlined.



I saw the car.


I noticed the red blurry about to hit her.


I noticed the speed the person hit her at.


I noticed she was in the hospital.


I noticed she was going to die.


In the hospital, with me holding her hand.


_I _noticed.


But _I _didn’t stop it.


I tried.


I screamed her name.


But it was to late.


I’d lost my bestfriend.


12


She was 12.
