Requiem Of The Fallen

My insides tingle and time is slowing
My mind sinking with dread
I fall through the sky knowing
Soon I will be dead.

The cool breeze stings my sinking face
As I flail about
The others have gone without a trace
While I scream and shout.

I see the ground below my feet
Closer and closer it comes.
I see the woods and breathing streets.
My heart like beating drums.

I pray to God that I will live
To tell my family “I love you”
What id do and what Id give
To see my life through.

    If only she knew, as the sun stood ablaze,
    The world she knew would disappear in the haze.
    How long would she dream of water and land?
    How long would she hope for an azure hand?

    If only she knew of the dangers in toll,
