It happened exactly how they showed in the movies
First, the silence
Then, my gut feeling that something bad was approaching
And the distant rumbling of something sinister
My heartbeat racing
And as I turn to run
The ground beneath me explodes
And swallows me whole
One second I was above ground
The next, I was upside down, underground
I could hear you laughing as you kiss her
Laughing above me, above the ground
And god, how I screamed and thrashed and cried for help
But oh, you didn't hear
You didn't realise I was gone
You didn't know I was down here
Hoping you'd reach down
And pull me up
Back into the safety of your arms
