In the beginning there was smoke
I could feel my lungs ever so slowly collapse
Respiratory distress
I gasped for air
A burst of flames
I crawled my way out
Trepidation
heart palpitations
My mother, my father, my brother are still in there

Omg, this sounds like an awful experience. I could almost feel the heat from the flames.
