Smoke

Flames,
shooting through windows
and out under doors.
Sobs,
coming from outside
and a loud roaring right beside me.
Confusion,
not sure what to do
to scream or cry…maybe both.
Fury,
All my life gone,
Into flames it went.
What do I do
Darkness,
threatening to take me
unwillingly.
Light,
so bright
it hurts my eyes.
Murmuring,
Low almost whispering
that I have to strain to hear.
Wailing,
full of sorrow
And very loud.
Confusion,
Where is it coming from?
Me.
