{Saved} (for) 5.31.12

His young face holds so many emotions, his deep brown eyes hold back an ocean of tears as he recounts what happened that day so many years ago.
“I saw him, I saw him murder a man with a machete. He cut off his  head, and he came after me.”
I lean in. He pauses, swallows, and continues. .
“I ran. I ran as fast as I could; he wanted to kill me because I saw him do it, I saw him murder him. I don’t know where I got the legs.”
He pauses again.
“I just know God was saving me for something. I didn’t know it, but he did.”

i can't believe it's taken me so long to post this.. :(
