Tearing a path through the night
Making the darkness so suddenly bright

Coughing up smoke
And trying not to choke

I wondered how could something made up
Of air and flame be so loud and deafening

Trying to see through the haze
Can I make it through this maze?

Listening for the call
Wondering if anyone will hear me at all

Reaching out a hand
Feeling my way through this strange hot land

Awakening to the bright hospital lights
I keep telling myself it’ll be alright
