All I could hear was knock knock
Anyone in there
Then blank mind block
The smell of smoke
The raging anger in the blood shot eyes
The ill feeling
Made me choke
It was all well and a happy day
I set down to pray
A beautiful shopping day
In my room I sat writing as usual
Out the window I saw something unusual
A masked man peeping in the other apartment
Without thinking I called out
Not long when I heard a shout
Perhaps the masked man caused harm
I ran to the phone but the line was dead
Foot steps raised an alarm
Slowly I moved into my room
Locked the door
And then I heard a loud boom
No escape from my room
The masked man jammed the door from outside
And here I was scared, locked inside
I screamed, shouted but no one heard
Smoke slowly filling the room
I moved to the corner of my room
I prayed, I prayed hard for rescue
But none could hear, only smoke just smoke
Hard to breath, room heating up
I felt it was my end
My heartbeat felt slower
My lungs gave up and I fell on the floor
Eyes blurred with tears, face grabbed all fears
Knock knock I could barely hear
Someone call
I was laying beside the back wall
After few hours I opened my eyes
Looked up to see the ceiling not the skys
I was alive
Saved by the fire fighters
Yes I could breath fresh air again
Out of the smoke filled room
That was almost my doom
I was glad that I was still sane
But I could feel the pain
In my head, in my chest, in my veins
The murderer successed in killing Mr.Rein
His escape was in vain
Laying here in the hospital bed
Trying to control my tears
As I faced with the most unusual fears
I still remember all, even its been years
