Flash fiction: Back to you and I

 Today I have been reading a novel that needs reviewing and working on a little bit of flash fiction. I think it's more like a poem than flash fiction if I'm honest though. 
Back to you and I…
What have I done to you? My cheeks are wet from the tears.  
The hands circle clockwise, but my mind circles back.  
Back to the vacant look in your emerald eyes, the left one fearful, ashamed.  
Back to the blood staining your pale skin; endless, endless cuts.  
Back to your body flying in the wind with the glass, like dandelions; those friendly creatures speckling the sky.  
Back to my foot pounding the brakes, too late; your scream, piercing the screen and my heart.  
Back to the words, so simple, so deathly; then heaven.  
Back to the laughter, my heart pumping, preparing; your smile and dimples unfaltering.  
Back to your hand on my neck, the tingling touches and goose bumps.  
Back to you and I.
Let me know what you think in the comments :)
