Why am I here? When did I get here? Who's there?

Why do I feel alone? where is everyone?

all I remember was the party... Shouldn't of ended like this.

All I see is a cage, it surrounds me like I'm a wild animal.

Who could do this to me? What's going on?

I don't feel anything, I can barely see.

A small scent of a burning candle surrounds me.

So quiet oh so quiet, like I was just in a sleep.

My mouth was dry I didn't understand.

I didn't understand any of this.

I just keep asking myself why, who, when.

Like that was gonna help me, I don't know.

I'm so confused... maybe I'm in a dream?

Maybe I'm just having a bad nightmare again.

But as soon as I sit there trying to wake up,

I hear the slightest of noise, like someone trying to sneak in

but who? I try speaking but nothing comes out.

Just stuck there wondering what is going on trying to yell.

After that, I just felt a long drop, and I never felt my body go so numb

I had no control over my body anymore, "someone help!" I would scream

Silence... Silence was all I could hear.

Did they leave, or are they standing there so quietly.

I couldn't understand if I was still standing or I on the ground,

I felt warm inside and out. Like something was by me.

Holding my breath I waited... waiting... waiting...

I heard another loud "BOOM" then everything went quiet.

"Beep... Beep... Beep" I started opening my eyes

Looking at a white wall and bright lights on my face

Wait... I'm sitting in a hospital room.

How did I get here?

As I look around the room I see a person next to me.

I open my mouth to speak but he stops me, he tells me I was in a fire.

Wait my house was on fire... what happened...?

It wasn't a bad nightmare... I was living a nightmare awake

Everything changed since then, knowing I was so close to my grave.

Not knowing that I was dying slowly.
