Click.....
Where your eyes open? Staring a crossed the bay
Where a week from today your loved ones will be standing trying to make sense of it all.

Click....
Did your heart drop? When you realized the silence was only from the ringing in your ears.
Or was the screaming on the phone distracting you from the non-existent panic racing through your heart.

Click....
....
.....
......
Lights blink red & blue against a stark white bridge.
The line still open, voices chocked back once the canon sounded.

D.O.A though your heart still beat
seconds after
They say, a sigh of relief echoed in tempo with others lives going by atop that bridge.

You called..
You called...
Brother.
Father.
Mother.
Wife....
