I'm Okay.

The excitement.
Tension, speed, competition.
Everyone is racing for the ball.
Laughter, anger, suspense.
I run for the ball;
we all do.
For a second, I'm laughing.
Then.. darkness.
I hear nothing
but the sound of my beating heart.
I open my eyes and say,
"I'm okay."
I try to stand,
but my head is pounding.
As everyone continues the game,
I walk away to sit.
I see you,
acting as if nothing happened.
My heart is pounding,
my head aches.
I'm checked for cuts...
none.
I'm questioned how I got up so fast...
strength.
I have so much of it.
I feel my head,
it's as if I'm growing another.
My eyes water when I realize,
I couldn't move my arm.
It hit my nerve.
But, I'm okay.
I think back,
you fell on me!
Then it was dark,
I blacked out!
The fear, the pain.
Every inch of my body,
The fear, the pain.
But, I'm okay.
My friends are more angry
then I actually am.
My head was pounding;
faster than my heart.
My speech was blurred,
But I remained optimistic.
I held back my tears.
I'm okay. I'm okay.

Recovery

there's a special kind of pain that you feel when you're heartbroken. you literally feel your heart pumping more blood, the tears as hot as fire as they run down your cheek. Just the sense of loss. but later on, you realized that all of that pain wasn't worth it...at all. Just the concept of growing in life. You may get your downfalls; and sure, you'll cry; but you'd always pick yourself back up again and learn.
