I feel the rush of terror vibrate through my body as I realize I'm out of control. For one split second I don't know if I will live or die. One second I'm panicked the next, Nothings wrong....Nothings wrong except memories.
The memories that remind me of the fear, the rush of terror, the second of not knowing what is going to happen. The memory that reminds me, life isn't always made, it's not always happy and it's never safe.
