I grab, but miss Her hand misses mine and she falls She screams Fire engulfs her and then night engulfs the fire Alone so cold I stand Fear clutches my throat A scream Her scream? No the wind A call for help? No, a bird flutters by. Sound then resound that high pitched cry that killed her How she lived then died before me Again resound the wail I made The scream I screamed. The heartache The loss of a friend, a lifelong companion The loss almost my fault for missing her hand I tried so hard to grasp Alone so cold I stand Dazed and numb The building still burns and the sirens get louder and louder.
