My apartment was cold. The streets were dark and the clouds were thundering. " How could this day get any better," I said out loud to nobody in particular.

The sirens were bellowing like babies crying over and over again. But I wasn't going to be a baby, not anymore. Tears flowed down my cheeks as I recalled the incident, clear as snow. Tears were flooding my eyesight as I was tying my black shoes. "Never again, never again" I fiercely thought to myself as I was clenching my teeth together.

"Never again".
The light shrunken down
Lost faces blocking off thought
Is the cold hard truth
