CRASH LANDING
I board the plane...excited,
To come back to my home town
I find my seat...13b, ready to sit down
One of the last to board the flight
The crew begins their act
If there's an emergency
I wonder how I'd react
We are flying down the runway
The speed fills me with glee
Then as we lift into the air
I no longer feel happy
That emotion turns to panic
With an instant rush of fear
For I know what is coming next
My certain death is near
Seconds turn to minutes..
Minutes into hours
A silence overwhelms me
The plane has lost it's powers...
I grip the chair
Yet I'm aware
My time's about to end
We spiral lifeless
Nose diving
No time for prayers to send
How do I recall this..
I've done this all before
I am no longer scared to die
For long ago I saw
Just what was to happen
I was prepared for this
Next time you feel scared in life
Seal it with a kiss xx

In response to your comment this write was not originally a tribute to the Malaysian plane incident but then once it was posted I decided it would be a nice dedication...I would never make light or try to capitalise on any tragic event...
The picture I chose for my write best fitted my poem and if you look around the site there have been tributes to the twin towers and suicide..unfortunately you have mistaken my words in poor taste..
I am sorry you have taken offense to my write....I meant no harm.
This is a beautiful poem. At first inspection I was nervous you may have wrote about a sore subject too soon as I suspected it was a tribute. But it's truly a lovely sentiment and I'm glad you wrote about it so gently;
"Next time you feel scared in life
Seal it with a kiss"
Great writing Carey!
Thanking you for your feedback Emma...Glad you liked....It was initially based on a dream I had long time ago :)
