Spark Sensation

Coming so close to dying was like watching an old picture at the theater. The further I sat from the screen, the easier it was to make out the dots. These dots were subtle at first-- 2 dimensional and much like floaters fixed on making the eye wander. I looked over my emergency bed to see a little girl, an apparition in this life, but someone destined to be of grave importance in the next.

The dots swarmed around her lifeless little legs, and in a fury flashed over her entire body like fireworks. Her heart monitor flatlined, and she lay all alone.

I looked at the ceiling, and the sparks stayed over me. My monitor went on and off throughout the night, each time the sparks stayed like their were stuck in the night sky watching down on me.
