Crash and Burn

I sat quietly                               On the plane that was taking me closer to my dreams.

I felt serenity                             As the attendant called the warnings of our descent.

I heard a POP!                         Right outside my window.

I smelled smoke                       And saw the panic spread throughout the cabin.

I screamed in terror                  But I was not the only one.

I could not breathe                   Yet I did not feel anything.

I could not see                          Though my eyes were wide open.

I could only think                      So much for my dreams.
