Standing There

I was standing there,
as the winds began to blow,

rain fell down 
the echo sounding like a hammer

the people gone, dispersed
me just standing there

the bells began to toll
the resounding hymn of God

"boom..." 
something falls from above

it races for my head.....
collides with me 

(silence) all around
I WAS standing there!
