It’s a sweet Sunday.
The sun is out and
Music is playing out in the courtyard.
A feeling of peace rests on the congregation.
When all of a sudden, a sharp stab penetrates my chest
My eyes widen
My mouth opens and a scream bursts, but no sound comes out
I try to keep my composure, but the blade pierces deep into my chest
It’s almost unbearable
My hands take hold of the blade
As I try pulling it out of me
When your face appears
My hands quickly let go of the blade
A smile creeps onto your face
And I know it’s over
I’m done for.

One day in church this feeling of being stabbed did come upon me and all I could do was write about it
