Videotape
Accelerated trauma
Starts my videotape
I replay it ten times over
Until my body breaks
The voices in the distance
Lost by a wall of sound
Distorted scenes crush me
Falling to the ground
Screaming out in fear
A fight before my eyes
Lashing out around me
Leads to my demise
Rapid breathing dissipates
Calmness fills the air
Tears break the silence
Fills me with despair
The dark storm receding
Carnage everywhere
Scattered lives around me
Damaged beyond repair
