Three years ago today
My world changed dramatically
I crashed my bicycle and went down hard
A stranger saved my life
I crashed into a sewer grate
Spaced to far apart
I crashed and flew under a trucks trailer
Under the rear wheels I lay stunned
A young man walking by with groceries
Stopped and ran to me yelling get out of there
He dragged me out from under the rear wheel
The light turned green the truck drove off
My leg swelled up
Went to the hospital for treatment
3 weeks later I went into surgery to remove a large hematoma
A year of wound care therapy, I limped and felt so weak
Time has passed and I still can't walk
My crutches and my walker
Is it my back?, neurologically induced
5 doctors later they still don't know
I'm thankful that I survived that day
Though it's clearly been a struggle
Suffering from pain and PTSD
And losing the love of my life
