The Final Breath

As the flight attendant made the accouncement that this plane is going down I took one last look at him Not knowing it be the last time I see him again My feet froze to the ground but in my mind I want to get up and run run run but where where where I look up to the celling and look out the window for the last time I turn and looked at him in his eyes and told him I love you and if either one us don't make it don't you grieve don't you die don't fall apart because I'am not near your side I held his hand tight as we went down down down I felt the loud crash as the plane hit the ocean floor I closed my eyes I felt my life fading away I blacked out My hand slipped out of my partner hand I try to gasp for air but nothing water filled my lungs I knew this was it My life flash in front of my face things you see before you walked into the light I was hoping the hand of God would catch me and my man before the final breath But if it's time to go Then it's time to go By Shaniki Smith 06-10-2016
