run run run

she was running
taking a jog
at night
but really she was running
with her ears full of song
and her eyes pushing black
and for a few moments
she closed her eyes
and she felt the cold on her skin
and heard the rhythm in her ears
and she ran
and in those few moments
a coincidence
a collision

a crack
a smash
a screech
a broken body
lying on the cool pavement
with the sweet sounds still in her ears
and the coldness all over
and the blackness getting stronger
she turned her head
to see the speckled sky
and once again she closed her eyes
no more running
she arrived
