Car Surfing During An Earthquake

I used to be afraid of the world- always wearing my headphones, blocking out the cold, finding warmth only in music tones.

And when there was an earthquake I hung tight onto my seat belt.  From the backseat I felt the earth shake.  You can't imagine how scared I felt.

And then I saw him~ this cute, crazy guy, car-surfing during the earthquake.  I thought I'd seen him in school, but that could be a mistake.

He waved his arms and laughed~ all the while balancing perfectly.  For a moment I thought he was daft...but then I understood completely.

I got out through the window and jumped on the hood.  A tiny voice said "don't", but it was all good.

I could not be scared of life.  No, I could not fear anymore.  I could feel the air as I balanced some more.

And soon it was over.  He looked at me and smiled.  I knew I'd never again take cover.  I'd never again hide.

Now I live to the fullest, just for happiness' sake, because of that crazy guy car surfing during an earthquake.
